Welcome

Hi, my name is Stephen Bevan and I am Principal at Tuart Hill Primary School in Perth, Western Australia. Research shows that open and clear communication between home and school is important which is why I have created this blog. As Principal of Tuart Hill Primary School I value your opinions and encourage your comments. Feel free to comment on any of the posts.

I will endeavour to provide you with regular and informative posts about our school and its activities. I ask that your comments be constructive and positive with any concerns or complaints directed to me personally at school.

Tuart Hill Primary School prides itself on the positive, open and friendly culture that has been established. Our vision is to raise the literacy level of all students through the provision of quality teaching and learning opportunities.

The names that are highlighted in red are the people that we would like to feed the animals (they only need feeding every second or third day). The chickens need to have their pellets and water filled on these days. Chicken droppings can be picked up on any day and placed in the bucket until full. The bucket should then be placed in the compost bin or in the red wheelie bin in the shed.

Please do not lot children into the chicken coop until we have been able to determine if any chickens are still affected by the recent illness. If you notice that any are sick please call Di Mount-Bryson.

The yabby and fish food is in the shed and has instructions on it. Please call Di if you are unsure.

At the end of the holidays some of our staff will be emptying and cleaning the Aquaponic tanks so that they look much nicer.

Please remember to log onto the wiki to keep records of your work in the garden.

If it rains then you will not need to do much watering (except in the greenhouse). Please remember to lock everything away in the shed before you leave.

KEYS – Joy at the after school care program will be managing keys for us. On weekdays you need to go to the after school care room and get the garden keys. Please remember to return them before you leave. People rostered over the weekends will need to visit the after school care room on the Friday before their roster and get a set of keys. It is important that the keys are returned early on Monday morning.

The wiki has a roster with phone numbers on it. If you are unable to attend on your rostered day please contact someone else and do a swap or else ring Di.

Thanks for your participation in this wonderful school program.
