I extend a very warm welcome back to Term 3. m88 online casino games has been an absolute joy reconnecting with our students and families and m88 online casino games is truly wonderful to see such happiness and vibrancy as we recommence school.
I rejoiced in the opportunity to celebrate student success at our mid-year Academic Awards. Our student body and community are uniquely warm and supportive, and I am grateful to be surrounded by individuals who embody such authentic connections. Congratulations to all students who received awards and to those who celebrate m88 online casino games success with them!
I would like to pay particular attention to our Year 5 and Prep students. 5B performed the National Anthem in our local Yugembah language, demonstrating an inspiring level of commitment, care, and attention to honouring m88 online casino games traditional language and culture. m88 online casino games instilled a deeper sense of connection and respect, and I am immensely proud of them.
Our Prep students experienced their first full formal occasion and absolutely shone. At Hills, we emphasise Doing the L.A.W.S., and our youngest community members exemplified m88 online casino games beautifully. Their integrity, respect, and diligence, along with their exceptional manners, were truly brilliant!
We have a wonderfully fulfilling term ahead, promising personal and social growth, especially for those students attending camp. m88 online casino games term will also offer opportunities for authentic learning and reflection through our Year 6 Exhibition and Student-Led Conferences.
Term 3 is always a delight, and I cannot wait to share m88 online casino games joy and excitement with our students and extended community.

Behavioural Expectations at Hills International m88 online casino games
In m88 online casino games week’s Edition, I wish to focus on behaviour and the processes we follow, aligned with our Behavioural Management Policy. At Hills International College, we pride ourselves on fostering a supportive and respectful learning environment that aligns with our L.A.W.S. values and behavioural expectations. Our behavioural standards are encapsulated in our L.A.W.S. (Living with Compassion, Acting with Integrity, Working with Diligence, Striving for Success) which guides our students in their daily interactions and personal development.
Consequences for misbehaviour are applied consistently and fairly. m88 online casino games consistency helps students understand the repercussions of their actions, reinforcing the importance of accountability and safety. Consequences range from restorative practices, where students can be reflective of their actions and take accountability, to more formal disciplinary actions when necessary, involving referral to the Executive Heads of school or the College Principal.
Our expected standards m88 online casino games maintained through:
Clear Communication

Uniform Update
It has been very cold m88 online casino games week, and we can expect more cold weather, I'm sure. We have allowed students to wear non-uniform items before Connection Time classes begin in the morning, but it's important to remember that m88 online casino games does not allow students to wear non-uniform items at other times. We have a good stock of jackets, jumpers, and other items (including beanies and fleece vests that can be worn before school).
If students feel cold with a jumper or jacket, they are absolutely permitted to wear thermal vests, shirts, or singlets under their formal shirts or sports shirts, as long as they are white or skin-toned and do not protrude m88 online casino games sleeves or hems.
It is an expectation and requirement of enrolment that students are provided with the full uniform at all times, and m88 online casino games includes both the sports jacket and the formal jumper. If students do not like one item or the other, m88 online casino games is not sufficient reason to allow them to wear the alternative. Students can wear a long-sleeve thermal under their jumper if they find it itchy, and take off the shirt once it has warmed up for the day.
We are constantly reviewing and updating our uniform policies and expectations, but it is important that parents support the m88 online casino games policies and procedures in place at all times.
NAIDOC Week m88 online casino games
During NAIDOC Week, our students kept the fire burning by connection. In Prep, students have engaged in child-led experiences thanks to their peer, Charlie, who brought in original Aboriginal artwork drawn by her Dad, a didgeridoo, and ancestor artifacts. Students also connected with Country and enjoyed the many outdoor spaces. Learning continued with a gathering in the yarning circle to discuss natural ways of life, a nature hunt, and story time. As also mentioned, our Year 5 students have been learning Yugembah. m88 online casino games understanding took them to new heights as they performed the National Anthem in Yugembah to our College community.
m88 online casino games spotlight with 2C
2C has kicked off Term 3 with a burst of excitement and energy!
m88 online casino games term, our Unit of Inquiry is all about "How The World Works," and we have plunged into exploring the fascinating effects of forces. Our hands-on experiments with toys and their movements have been a highlight, sparking curiosity and joy. We've delved into gravity, discovering how height influences the speed and distance objects travel under its pull.
In Maths, we have begun participating in daily ‘Number Talks’ where we challenge ourselves to solve problems and show our thinking so we can learn m88 online casino games each other. We're also diving into the world of shapes, learning to describe their features with formal spatial terms. Our creative juices flowed as we designed wanted posters in response to a letter m88 online casino games ‘Constable Carton’ after the shapes made a daring escape m88 online casino games Shape City Prison. Through building, manipulating, and comparing shapes, we are gaining a deeper understanding of their unique characteristics.
Our Writing Genre m88 online casino games term is narratives, and the creativity flowing from our Year 2 cohort is truly impressive! We are learning about narrative structures, the significance of language features in crafting engaging stories, and the essential elements of complications and resolutions.
We have commenced m88 online casino games term with a fresh and eager spirit, ready to dive into our learning adventures. The journey ahead promises to be filled with discovery, creativity, and fun!
