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.

Western Power Shockproof Program

On Monday and Tuesday this week our students participated in the Western Power Shockproof Schools Program.

Every year in Western Australia families are affected by the trauma of injury associated with electrical shock.  Most of these injuries are preventable and are due to a lack of understanding of electrical safety.

ShockProof is a free electrical safety and energy efficiency education program for Pre primary to Year Seven students. The program encourages active learning and class participation in a fun and engaging presentation. 

The program helped teach students:
  • how electricity works
  • how they come into contact with electricity every day
  • the dangers of electricity
  • how to be energy efficient
The program also communicates energy efficiency messages for children to practise at home and at school and encourages responsible energy use.
