Belmore South Public School

While the big kids were running and jumping, breaking records and trying to get into the Zone Athletics the little ones were having a less pressured time running, jumping, playing ball games and generally enjoying the sunshine and playing games with their friends and their teachers.

Monday is a very busy day!!
Stage 2 and 3 have Music with the Jellybeans and Stage 1 and Kindies have Dance2Bfit.

The debaters are debating Burwood Public School.

Cricket Workshops for Stage 2 and 3 are on Tuesday.

What is golden time you ask?
It is a time when you can enjoy a relaxing end of the week doing something you really, really like doing!
Does everyone in the school have Golden Time?
All those students in the school who have worked well and behaved appropriately in the week get to have Golden Time.
When is Golden Time? Usually Friday afternoon.
Is there any special event that can happen in Golden Time?
Oh yes! The Class of the Week gets to use the DS Lites and all the games we have to go with them.
Teachers and their students can negotiate special rewards like playing extra sport, using the Wii’s, doing some special artwork anything really.
The only thing to remember is if you want to be in Golden Time you have to be well behaved, work hard and not muck about.
Are there other schools in the world who have Golden Time or something like it?

Last year our school achieved Gold Level in the Premier’s Sporting Challenge.

The Challenge is a great way to motivate students to participate in physical activity. It also motivates teachers to set interesting, exciting and challenging physical activities with their classes.

All the classes become very competitive because their weekly physical activity also goes towards their Class of Year Awards.

The program only needs to run for 5 weeks. At our school it is unanimous we are doing the program for 10 weeks.

Last year we received over $5000 for participating and doing so well.

You should see the great equipment we’ve got to make this year’s sport programs really effective.

Ms Dongas is organising the Challenge.

Come on it’s just 20 minutes exercise a day . . . GET ACTIVE!!!

Look how much we do already.
