We are happy to welcome three new students and their families to our school and hope they enjoy being part of our Kismet Park learning community. We wish Jamie Dunne 1/2G, Hayley Sandlant 1/2Z and Joshua Sandlant 5/6S all the best in their future learning.

Congratulations to Callum Cooke on being awarded an incentive prize for participating in the online voting of the Australian Museum Eureka Prizes People’s Choice Award. The Australian Museum Eureka Prizes are Australia’s premier national science awards program, rewarding excellence in the fields of research & Innovation, science leadership, school science and science journalism & communication. As part of a lesson in the computer lab last term, 3/4C students accessed the online site to learn more about scientists and their vital work.  After perusing each prize winner’s contribution to Australia’s scientific advancements, some of our students made an online vote for the People’s Choice Award with this year’s recipient being Dr. Katherine Belov for her work with the Tasmanian Devil.  Callum was fortunate enough to have been selected to receive one of the incentive prizes and we look forward to making the presentation to him at tomorrow’s assembly.

Have a great term!

Regards, Glenn & Diane
