3-6 Athletics Day
Week 10 of last Term, we had our Grade 3-6 Athletics Day at Bill Sewart Athletics Track. It was wonderful to see the students having a ball, supporting each other and representing their houses beautifully. A huge thank you to the 28 helpers who attended and helped to run the event. The day cannot run without the support of helpers so I appreciate you all and your support. Another thank you to all the Grade 3-6 teachers for their support on the day as well.
We have District Athletics coming up on the Friday 12/5 at Knox Athletics Track. I look forward to seeing the 67 students representing BHPS on the day.
Whole School Cross Country
A huge congratulations to all the students at BHPS who participated in the BHPS Cross Country last Friday. It was amazing day and we were very lucky with the sunshine. A big thank you to the 21 helpers who attended on the day and helped to run the event.
We have District Cross Country coming up on the Friday 19/5 at Jells Park. I look forward to seeing the 60 students representing BHPS on the day.
Active Club
Active Club started this week. It is held the first half of lunch, every Wednesday at the top oval. Thank you to Mr Dean for helping me this term. A huge well done to the 45 students who attended and ran for half of lunch this week. Very proud of you all! I look forward to seeing more and more students attend throughout the term.
AFL Play Program
BHPS have been very fortunate to receive two FREE weeks of AFL incursions from AFL Victoria. The entire school will be participating in AFL lessons for Week 2 and 3 in P.E lessons. A big thank you to the coaches this week Matt and Aiden for teaching our students handballing and kicking this week. They have absolutely loved it!
Inspire Workshop
The Grade 3-6 students during their 3/4 and 5/6 sport time this week participated in the ‘Inspire’ Workshop with Rugby Victoria. Students learnt about the importance of Gratitude, Support, Respect, Honesty, Teamwork, Resilience and Inclusion in sport and how to demonstrate these skills at school, in the yard and outside of school. A huge thank you to Lenny at Rugby Victoria for running these FREE programs for our students.
Wonder Recycling Program
Just a reminder that BHPS is taking part in the Wonder Recycling Rewards campaign this year!
Help us collect EMPTY bread bags so we can earn points to redeem on new RHS sports equipment (they don’t need to be bread bags from the Wonder brand). All you need to do is keep your empty bread bags and send them to school with your kids! Collection point is at the front office. Let’s get collecting!
Collections close 7th July
