Primary Update – Term 1 Week 2

It has been a wonderful start to the 2025 school year, with the smiling faces of students, staff and parents once again visible across the Primary campuses. Our students are settling nicely into their new classrooms, campuses and routines. At the start of the year, it can often be a time of adjustment for many students as they learn new teachers, peers and structures. If you have any concerns during this time, I encourage you to reach out to your child’s classroom teacher to discuss them.

Communication

As mentioned at the Primary Parent Information evening, this year will continue our efforts to refine and streamline communication with Primary parents.

The newsletter will be used to post as much information as possible for the upcoming fortnight, so I encourage all families to read the newsletter carefully each fortnight and refer to the information as required throughout the term. Past newsletters can always be found on the College website.

Email and the official Newman College App will be utilised to communicate with parents in between newsletters.

SeeSaw will now be kept as a place to view your children’s class work, as well as a place for the classroom teacher (and specialist teachers when required) to post directly to individual class/cohort parent groups.

Newman App

The Newman College app should now be available once more in the Apple store after some issues with the Apple App Store in the last few weeks. It would be beneficial if parents could ensure they have the Newman App, as this will be utilised more in 2025 as one of the main modes of communication.

To download the app in the App Store (Apple Devices) or Google Play (Android Devices) simply type in Newman College.

Alternatively, the direct links are here:

Apple Store

Google Play

It is important to select “Primary” under subscriptions. This can be found by clicking on “More” and going to “Settings”.

Parent Information Evening

A huge thank you to all of the Primary parents who were able to come along to the Primary Parent Information Evening held last Thursday. It was a wonderful event and the Primary Leadership Team heard so much positive feedback from parents on the night. I hope the night was very informative and that those who attended the optional sessions in the second half of the evening found them meaningful. As always, we are interested in any parent feedback from the evening, so if you have any feedback to share on the classroom sessions, optional sessions or the event itself, I ask you to complete this form.

A copy of the Optional Co-Curricular session PowerPoint can be found here and the Social Emotional Learning Presentation can be found here for those interested.

Primary Family Picnic

I look forward to seeing as many families as possible at the upcoming Primary Family Picnic. Please click here for details.

Newman Norms / Medals of Marcellin

Our Medals of Marcellin are back in 2025! Each fortnight at each Primary campus, one person will be drawn out of the raffle and receive a small prize for living out our Newman Norms. Congratulations to Will (Marian Campus) who was the Week 1 winner of our raffle! Each raffle ticket received is swapped for a token and the Guild with the highest number of tokens at the end of the term wins a prize for the whole Guild!

Primary Swimming Carnival (Y3-6)

Please see below for communication from Mrs Richards regarding the upcoming 2025 Swimming Carnival. We ask that all students remain at the event until the end of the school day (3:00pm) to support their peers and their Guilds. Should you need to leave early for an appointment, please email Amanda.johnson@newman.wa.edu.au to advise so we have notice. If students do not remain until the end of the Carnival it becomes very difficult with the number of names needing to be called over the PA System whilst also trying to run the event effectively. For those parents with children at Marian, rest assured they will be supervised by staff until you arrive after the Carnival, so there is no need to leave the Carnival early.

URSTRONG

Last year saw the successful introduction of the URSTRONG Friendship Curriculum across the Primary. It has been wonderful to hear so many families using the same language and discussing the same concepts at home. A reminder, parents continue to have access to a FREE URSTRONG parent membership. We hope that as a URSTRONG Family, you will reinforce the important messages of empowerment, self-compassion, & kindness at home.

Student Illness

A reminder that if students are sick they should not attend school. We ask for parent cooperation with this to ensure sickness does not spread to other students and our teaching staff. Already this year we have seen a significant number of students and staff away from school with illness. If students attend school with symptoms of being sick, the front office will contact parents to come and collect them. If students have vomited, they should remain at home for 24 hours after the last time they vomited. Thank you for your understanding and support to ensure the wellbeing of our students and staff, and the continuity of learning programs.

Homework Club

Lavalla Homework Club resumes this term for students in Years 3-6.

  • Commences: Week 4 – Tuesday 25 February
  • When: Tuesday afternoons (Term 1 Weeks 4-9)
  • Where: Lower Level Years 3-6 Building
  • Time: 3:00-4:30pm (please note pickup is strictly at 4:30pm)

Homework Club is an opportunity for your child to spend time in the afternoon completing their homework, collaborating with peers on tasks/projects, working independently on unfinished work, as well as receiving additional support from teachers who are supervising.

Students are provided time to have their own afternoon snack at 3:05pm, plus a short play, before commencing Homework Club at around 3:30pm.

If your child will be attending Homework Club, you are asked to complete this form so we are aware of the expected numbers and can ensure appropriate supervision.

Sacramental Program 2025

Students in Years 3, 4 and 6 in 2025 will be preparing for the Sacraments of Reconciliation, Eucharist and Confirmation. The learning component of the Sacrament will be completed at school and parents are required to contact their local parish to enrol their child if they wish them to receive the Sacrament. Further information can be found within the links below, and each Parish will have slightly different requirements with regards to their Sacramental Program.

Enrolments for all parishes are open and parents are encouraged to enrol their children as soon as possible, as many of the parishes will be finalising their enrolments next week.

Sacramental Program – Floreat Wembley Catholic Parish

Sacramental Program – Immaculate Heart of Mary Scarborough

Sacramental Schedule – Doubleview Parish

Sacramental Program – St Joseph’s Subiaco

Sacramental Program – Holy Spirit City Beach

If you have any questions regarding the Sacramental Program please contact Jane Short, Primary Religious Education Coordinator, jane.short@newman.wa.edu.au

Numeracy and Literacy Support Programs

In primary school, we use a three-tiered approach to support Literacy and Numeracy development.

In level 1 the classroom teacher screens and tests students to determine their point of need. They then differentiate the activities in the classroom to accommodate the needs of each student. This may look like different readings, spelling lists or different numbers for a sum.

Level 2 involves withdrawing a small group for support. The classroom screens are used to identify any students experiencing difficulties. Further screens are then completed to identify what small group program would suit them.

For Literacy, we use MacqLit (Years 3-6) and MiniLit Sage (Years 1-2) to focus on phonics support. We also offer Book Club (Years 3-6) to focus on developing comprehension skills and strategies. Parents will receive a letter explaining that their child is invited to participate in these programs. Some students may be withdrawn to focus on fluency with our Fluency Reading program. This program has a more fluid approach and will change depending on student performance week to week.

In Numeracy we also offer tier 2 withdrawn small group support. In Years 1-2 the focus is on strengthening foundational skills. Parent will receive a letter if their child is invited to this program. Years 3-6 students focus on classroom content delivered at a differentiated pace. This program is more flexible and students are invited to come to sessions depending on the topic and their confidence in learning. This approach helps students recognise the need for support and accessing what is available for them.

Tier 3 students have individualised learning programs catering to their specific needs in Literacy and Numeracy. Parents will be informed of any plans for Tier 3 interventions.

All these programs of support are determined by students’ performance in screening assessments and class work. In Term 1 all support programs will begin in week 3.

Library Volunteers

We have wonderful libraries on both our Primary campuses and we encourage students to discover their love of reading by coming to browse and choose books from our large collection. Help is needed with the shelving or covering of books on both campuses and we are seeking parent and or grandparent volunteers to help.   

If you would like to offer your assistance, please complete this Library Volunteer form by Monday 17 February. A roster will then be drawn up and details will be emailed to you.

Thank you in advance for your support.

Year 6 Camp

Our Year 6 classes head off to Forrest Edge, Waroona on Monday 24 – Wednesday 26 February for their annual camp. The experience promises to be a wonderful opportunity for our students to develop and strengthen their relationships as a cohort, and to challenge themselves in a range of ways that push them outside of their comfort zone.

From the Principal – Welcome to 2025

Dear Parents and Guardians,  

A warm welcome back to the start of Term One. A special mention to our new families who will begin their journey within our Newman College Community in 2025.   

I trust that the Christmas and holiday periods provided opportunities for relaxation, connection, presence, and family spirit. The 2025 school year is shaping up to deliver many life-giving experiences to our students and community.   

It is an exciting time for Newman College as we move our Marian students to their new home in the Primary Build and celebrate and farewell the Marian Campus. We also celebrate some significant anniversaries, recognising the 20th anniversary of becoming a K-12 school with the amalgamation of Newman Junior School in 2005, and the 60th anniversary of the opening of Marist College on our Churchlands site in 1965.   

Marist Theme

Family Mass  

The formal opening of the school year occurs at our Family Mass and Commissioning of Student Leaders on Tuesday 18 February at 5.30pm on the Br Terrence Gleeson Oval (Marcellin Oval).

It is my hope that our wonderful Marist community continues to grow and that students and staff pursue and achieve their goals as the year unfolds.   

Best wishes for the coming weeks.

Catholic Performing Arts Festival 2024

Newman College Arts Students Shine at the Catholic Performing Arts Festival 2024

Newman College is delighted to celebrate the incredible achievements of its Arts students at this year’s Catholic Performing Arts Festival 2024. We had 277 students from the Lavalla and Marcellin campuses take part in a range of categories, including music, drama, and dance, and their performances were met with great acclaim.

A special congratulations goes to Heloise Nathan, who was awarded the Monsignor Michael Keating Shield, a prestigious honour recognizing her outstanding contribution to the festival. In addition, the College’s production of The Tempest was awarded an Outstanding for its captivating portrayal of Shakespeare’s classic. The Lavalla String Ensemble also earned an Outstanding Award, as did several of our talented String soloists.

Our Primary and Senior Dance Troupes both received Certificates of Excellence, a testament to their hard work and dynamic performances on stage.

These successes are the result of the dedication and passion of not only the students but also their teachers, who have worked tirelessly to support them. Hours of rehearsals and preparation were required to bring these performances to life, and the hard work truly paid off.

Thank you to all involved for making this year’s festival such a success, and congratulations to the students and staff for representing Newman College with pride and excellence.

Primary Update – Term 3 Week 4

Year 2 Blue Assembly

In Week 3, the Year 2 Blue class shared with us a wonderful Assembly, focusing on the importance of friendships. The students shared with us many important messages from our PK-6 Primary School Friendship Curriculum (URSTRONG), including friendship facts and what healthy friendships are. They concluded with a timely song – ‘You’ve Got a Friend in Me’. Thanks Year 2 Blue for sharing these important messages about friendship!

Newman Norms / Medals of Marcellin

Our new Newman Norms are now on our website and I encourage you to have a look at these expectations for our Primary students – Newman Norms – Newman College. Each week our staff and students will focus on 1 Norm, to discuss and unpack what that norm means for our students in their day-to-day school life.

In Week 2 Shay (Marian) and Austin and Kairav (Lavalla) were drawn out of the raffle for demonstrating our Newman Norm of Greet our teachers & respond to the roll call appropriately.

In Week 3 Addison (Marian) and Leo (Lavalla) were drawn out of the raffle for demonstrating our Newman Norm of Make sure we are prepared with everything we need for our day.

Congratulations to all students who received a raffle ticket in the past fortnight.

Wellbeing Week

This week, Newman College students and staff were excited to celebrate Wellbeing Week! This special week was dedicated to promoting the mental, emotional, and physical health of our students through a variety of engaging activities.

We believe that Wellbeing Week was a wonderful experience for our students, helping them to build healthy habits and positive mindsets.  

Justin Kirry & Edwina Battersby 
Leaders of Wellbeing 

We kicked off the week with some energising activities. Students had the opportunity to incorporate movement into their lessons and participate in Staff vs Student games. At Marian Campus, we played Soccer (Students beat Teachers 1 nil!), and at the Lavalla Campus, we enjoyed a game of Netball (Teachers won 16 to 1!).

This day was all about gratitude. Students were encouraged to write notes of appreciation to their peers or take some time for self-reflection.

We focused on relaxation and mindfulness. Students participated in meditation activities designed to promote calmness and mental wellbeing. 

To conclude the week, students dressed up in their favourite “Zones of Regulation” colours (blue, green, yellow, or red). This dress-up day helped students visually connect to the Zones and promoted emotional awareness. Thank you for your support in making this day a success. 

URSTRONG – Lesson 6 Upcoming

Lesson 6 will be rolled out across the Primary next week. The areas of focus for this upcoming lesson are:

PK-2: This session teaches students, step-by-step, how to resolve conflict with a friend and how to respond to hurt feeling and misunderstandings.

Years 3 and 4: This session teaches students how to respond to intentionally cruel, rude, or mean behaviour with a Quick Comeback. Students learn the difference between a Friendship Fire vs Mean-on-Purpose behaviour, along with Reporting vs Tattling.

Years 5 and 6: This session highlights hot topics for this age group including: how to kindly decline, feeling caught in the middle, ways to end gossip, and navigating friendships online.

A reminder parents have access to a FREE URSTRONG parent membership. We hope that as a URSTRONG Family, you will reinforce the important messages of empowerment, self-compassion, & kindness at home.

Student Illness

As we travel through the middle of the winter months, it is important to remind families of the importance of keeping children home if they display symptoms of being unwell. Illness spreads quickly amongst primary students, so we ask that if your child is sick that you do not send them to school. Please keep them home until symptoms clear, to avoid passing on sicknesses to other students and staff. This is particularly important for vulnerable members of our community. Students that present to school with symptoms of being unwell will be sent home. Your support is greatly appreciated.

Student Arrivals

If your child arrives/is dropped off to school after the 8:45am bell to commence the school day (this is the time the class roll is taken), then they must go through the front office to sign in and have the roll updated by the front office. We appear to have a number of students arriving after 8:45am and going straight to class, which causes disruption to our attendance procedures, so please ensure your child goes through the front office for their attendance to be updated.

Kiss N Ride

Please ensure you are not parking in the Kiss N Ride section at either campus, to ensure smooth flow of cars and efficient pick-up process for all.

Disabled Parking Bays

Only cars with ACROD permits should be parking in the disabled parking bays. Please be mindful of those in our community who need these bays.

Athletics Carnival

Please note that our upcoming Athletics Carnival (Friday 6 September) is an alcohol-free event. More information regarding the day will be sent out by Mrs Richards in the coming weeks.

Wishing all families an enjoyable and relaxing long weekend!

Uniform and Personal Presentation Expectations

At Newman College, we take great pride in our students representing our community with excellence and integrity. To maintain our high standards, we ask all students and parents to ensure that our uniform guidelines are followed. This includes shirts tucked in, top buttons done up, ties worn properly to the top button, skirts worn at the correct length, and blazers worn to and from school. These expectations apply not only at the College but also in the wider community, including on public transport and when entering and leaving the College grounds.

We encourage parents and guardians to work in partnership with the College to help students uphold our uniform standards. Checking that your child is dressed appropriately before they leave the house or step out of the car will assist in our shared approach to maintaining high standards of uniform. Additionally, we appreciate any effort to reiterate the importance of adhering to uniform requirements and personal presentation at the College. Your efforts to check uniforms and personal presentation prior to your child leaving for school or any College activity is greatly appreciated.

We thank you for continued support.

Attendance and Punctuality

Regular school attendance and punctuality are essential for students’ academic success and wellbeing. Consistent attendance allows students to benefit fully from our learning programs and activities.

We are excited to announce a new resource developed by Ms Sarah Ellam and the Wellbeing team, to support parents in this effort. For more information about this new, evidence-based resource, please check the Secondary section of the newsletter.

If you have concerns about your child’s attendance, please contact the relevant Pastoral Care Group teacher or Leader of Wellbeing.

Marcellin Campus Guild Athletics Carnival

Next Thursday, the Year 7-12 Guild Athletics Carnival takes place at the State Athletics Centre. Students have been preparing hard at pre-carnival events and training with the help of Physical Education and Guild staff. A reminder to families that the day is a compulsory event for all students. We wish all involved the very best and look forward to celebrating outstanding achievement and passionate involvement.

Nationally Consistent Collection of Data on School Students with Disability (NCCD)

The NCCD provides state and federal governments with the information they need to plan more broadly for the support of students with disability. Every year, all schools in Australia participate in the Nationally Consistent Collection of Data on School Students with Disability (NCCD). The NCCD process requires schools to identify information already available in the school about supports provided to students with disability. Further details can be found here.

If you have any questions about the NCCD, please contact the Sarah Pagett, Leader of Support and Pedagogy.
