FROM THE PRINCIPAL
RETIREMENTS
It is with very mixed emotions that I advise you of the retirement of Mr George Pentis and Ms Lynette Harrington. Mr Pentis and Ms
Harrington have announced to me their intention to retire at the end of this term.
Both of these staff members will be greatly missed by all of our school community. To celebrate the distinguished careers of Mr Pentis
and Ms Harrington we will be holding a very special assembly on 30 March 2015. We welcome the school community to come along to
our school hall for this assembly commencing at 8:45am.
I have advertised for teachers on the Qld Government Smart Jobs Website. After we have completed the recruitment process I will be
able to advise you of who will be taking 5P and 2H for the remainder of 2015.
I’m sure you will join with me in congratulating Mr Pentis and Ms Harrington on their retirement.
GLAD TO BE BACK
I am very glad to be back on deck after what can only be described as a frustrating couple of weeks. Despite being
poked and prodded, scanned and analysed by a number of specialists there was no clear medical reason for my
recent blackout. The upside of that of course is that there is nothing really bad to be concerned about.
I am so grateful and humbled by the support from our school community. Mrs Platts saw me walking home from
one of my scans and picked me up. My lovely wife taken numerous periods off work to take me into town and I
have received many cards and well wishes from our beautiful kids.
Once again I am reminded that I work with such a wonderful and dedicated team of professionals who ensured
that everything kept on track over the past four weeks. They didn’t drop the ball and kept juggling the enormous
amount of agendas we continue to manage in our great school. Thanks to Brendan and Christine for their
wonderful leadership and focus in the office during my absence. They are amazing professionals whom I have huge
respect for. They did an amazing job in maintaining all the agendas we are currently running.
QPARENTS
QParents is live and available for Aspley Parents. The uptake from our parents has been great. Parents of over 100
of our students are now able to view and print previous report cards, pay school invoices, provide absence data
and view contact information. They can even make changes to this at their convenience. Never before have
parents had 24/7 access to this information and Aspley State School is one of the first schools in the state to offer
this to parents.
I would encourage all parents to take advantage of the convenience of being able to access your child’s
information when you need it. Especially those who will soon be seeking admission to high schools and need to
provide previous report cards. How convenient will it be to access your child's information and get your application
in early without having to wait for the office to re-print old reports.
This week we will be sending home paper invitations to those who have not yet registered. I cannot stress to you
enough how convenient having this access will be for you as a parent. Especially paying for excursions and other
school activities. You will be able to choose the invoice you wish to pay and pay it directly through QParents at
your convenience. No more lost invoices mixed up with the rotting apple at the bottom of the school bag.
If you have any questions or need help registering please contact Annie Duffy or email
the.principal@apsleyss.eq.edu.au
P&C AGM
It was great to see many new faces at the P&C AGM last night. I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the
members of the 2014 P&C Association for the hard work, dedication and support for our school. 2014 was again a
wonderful year with the P&C providing over $84,000 in financial support to our school. Thanks to this support we
were able to continue our technology program, complete projects like the new tiered seating on the oval, adding
internal steps to the sound and lighting box at the hall, air-condition another 9 classrooms as well as construct the
trophy cabinet inside the hall, just to name a few.
A very special thank you to Anthony Jones (2014 President) and Alan Smith (2014 Secretary) for their many years
of service to our school in executive positions with the P&C. Both gentlemen have concluded their involvement
with the school due to their children completing their education at Aspley. Both Anthony and Alan have worked
tirelessly in their executive positions to maintain a brilliant and supportive P&C organisation that turns over in
excess of a quarter of a million dollars annually. Your legacy will be long felt and enjoyed by the students and staff
at Aspley State School.
Congratulations and thank you to the incoming P&C executive for 2015:
President – Mrs Victoria Edwards
Vice President – Mr BrendenMcClennan
Secretary – Mrs Alice Long
Treasurer – Mr Danny Power
STRATEGIC PLAN 2016-2019
Aspley State Primary School has embarked on a strategic planning process with a view to preparing a comprehensive 2016 –
2019 year plan to guide the future direction of the School. The School has engaged Strategy1st, a Brisbane-based consulting
firm, to assist us with this task.
Essential to the success of this project, will be the inclusion of the school community in the development of this plan. We
intend to include parents, staff and students in the process as well as giving consideration to inviting education and
government representatives and business partners of the School.
Grant O'Hara of Strategy1st will facilitate the project which formally commences in March 2015 and should conclude by
October this year. The process will include one-on-one interviews, plus parent, staff and student forums and major and miniworkshops with key leaders within our School. Suffice to say the process will be comprehensive and I invite everyone’s
involvement. Please be advised that a ‘community strategic plan survey’ will also form an essential element of the process.
Additionally, invitations to the first forum will be sent to parents this week. If you would really like to be involved please
contact Annie Duffy.
This is a critical project for the School and one which will clearly set our ‘vision’ and ‘future direction.’ This ultimately will
place us in the best position to offer optimum opportunities for our students.
If you have any queries on the process, I invite you to give me a call on 38639111.
DEPUTY PRINCIPAL'S NEWS
Sunshine Classics Online
In the last issue of the newsletter, we outlined the Sunshine Classics Online initiative. A reminder for those students invited to participate
that we require your permission forms and payment to be returned to the office to secure your place.
We have extended the closing date to Monday 23 March.
HARMONY DAY
Harmony Day is celebrated on the 21 March each year. As this falls on a weekend, our school will be
celebrating Harmony Day on Monday 23 March at a special assembly.
On this day Australians celebrates our cultural diversity. Harmony Day is focussed on inclusiveness,
respect and a sense of belonging for all Australians.
At Aspley State School, amongst our students and staff, we celebrate 55 different cultures .
Active School Travel - Interclass competition
As discussed in the last newsletter, we have started an interclass competition for Active Travel where the
winner each week is presented with the AST star trophy on assembly.
The class award for week 6 was 4B. The winning teacher award went to Mr Grove.
The week 7 award went to 4F and the teacher award went to Mr Pentis.
It is great to see the lift in the number of students travelling actively to school over the past few weeks and
the competition is a close race each week.
One student can make all the difference!
Aspley 125 Obstacle Course fundraiser
The Aspley State School P&C Association will be conducting a major Fundraiser for this Semester, the Aspley 125
Obstacle Course on Wednesday 1 April 2015.
This event will include a Fundraising Obstacle Course for Years Prep – Year 6 during school time on the day,
following the 96.5FM Breakfast Team’s outside broadcast from 6am to 9am.
All funds raised by the Aspley 125 Obstacle Course will provide the P&C (and in turn, the school) with additional
financial resources to expand the air conditioning of classrooms, so we are seeking your support of this initiative.
Students have received a Sponsorship Form with a selection of over 70 prizes to choose from such as Sony, iPod
Shuffles, Wahu, Razor, Nerf and more. The list of prizes can be viewed in the attached Sponsorship Form.
We ask you to seek donations to support your student/s participation in the Obstacle Course which in turn supports
the school’s aims of air conditioning additional classrooms. Due to the costs involved with the third party online
fundraising, it has been decided that all fundraising will be completed offline and sent to the office by the due date.
Students who raise as little as $10 in donations will be entitled to a prize of their choice (refer to the Sponsorship
Form for more information). The more donations you receive, the more prizes you can choose from. You can even
mix and match your prizes inside each prize category!
Date claimer: Please return your completed Sponsorship Form and funds collected to the School Office no later than
Friday 20 March 2015. Please be sure to fill out your prize request. The individual prizes will be delivered to the
School during Term 2.
We also welcome parents and family members to attend the Aspley 125 Obstacle Course to help cheer on their
students, noting that at the completion of their participation all students will return to their classrooms to continue
their learning.
We acknowledge the wonderful support of Holt Fitness and the Holt Bolt Kids in the staging of this event.
Thank you in advance of your participation. Happy fundraising!

Refund Guidelines For Excursions, Camps And Activities
At Aspley State School, we are committed to providing a safe and supportive learning environment for students, staff and
volunteers. This commitment includes the health and safety of staff and students when conducting curriculum activities in the
school or in other locations.
School excursions and camps enhance a student’s learning by providing opportunities for the student to participate in activities,
both curriculum-related and recreational, outside the normal school routine. All planned school excursions are approved by the
Principal and endorsed by the Parents and Citizens Association.
State schools are able to charge a fee for:
1.
An educational service including materials and consumables not defined as instruction, administration and facilities for the
education of the student;
2.
An education service purchased from a provider other than the school where the provider charges the school; and
3.
A specialised educational program.
A school fee is directed to the purpose for which it is charged.
School fees for excursions and camps are calculated on a cost recovery only basis, according to the number of students who
have indicated their attendance.
Participation of students in an excursion or camp is indicated through payment of the excursion or camp fee and provision of a
permission form completed by the parent/carer.
As the school budget cannot meet any shortfalls in funding for an excursion or camp due to the subsequent non-participation of
a student who had previously indicated attendance of the activity, fees already paid for an excursion or school camp may be
refunded in full or in part or not at all, having regard to the associated expenses incurred and the circumstances of the nonparticipation.
If a parent/carer wishes to apply for a refund due to their child’s non-participation in an excursion or camp activity, they
may do so by completing a Request for Refund form available from the school office. Where possible, the request should
include the receipt relating to the payment for which a refund is being sought.
It is preferred that refunds be made as a credit against the student’s account at the school, and used for any cost in the
future.

WICKED – WOW!!
Mrs McIntyre and Ms Jabs had the wonderful opportunity to take 76 lucky Instrumental Music Students and Choralists to experience the
amazing musical Wicked last Wednesday 11th March. We had a marvellous time & as music teachers, it was so special to see our children
enjoying every moment, being inspired & giving the performers a standing ovation at the end of the performance! Congratulations to all on
a wonderful excursion.
Student’s reviewsMalachi Wrigley
Seventy-six very lucky Aspley State School students, Mrs McIntyre, Miss Jabs, Mrs Boardman and Mrs Rossiter had the opportunity to see
a very AWESOME musical called “WICKED” at the Lyric Theatre QPAC on the 11 th March 2015. There were lots of “Ooooohhh’s”,
“Aaaaahhhh’s” throughout the whole production with a well-deserved standing ovation. You just couldn’t take your eyes away from the
stage, every moment was wickedly amazing!!!
The outfits were well made and bright in colour just as eye catching as Elphaba’s green skin. Elphaba known as the Wicked Witch of the
West is one of the main characters and you can’t help but feel sorry for her as her story unfolds. However at the same time you really get to
like her especially when she turns up to the ball and does her uncool weird dance. The other main characters is her frenemyGalinda the
very laugh out loud funny, blonde, rich and popular roommate, who also becomes her best friend and the good witch. Everything from the
singing, dancing, story and stage set was over the top wickedly awesome! Five star rating all around! It’s a must see experience!!!
Elizabeth Buckle
Wicked was totally wicked! There were lots of smoke and special affects at the lovey musical. My favourite part was when they played
through their life time. It was really funny when Glender tried to show the Wicked Witch of the West how to be popular. She actually
copied her. As other people say, she was being Glenderfied! I also liked the part where the dragon moved its head. Every time this
happened the Wicked Witch was doing something. For example chanting a spell on a monkey making it grow wings!!! At the end we
found out the Wicked Witch of the West was Glenda’s best friend. I really liked this!!!!

PROBLEM SOLVING AT WAVELL HIGH
On Monday 9th March, twenty of our Year 5 and 6 students attended the Year 5-8 Problem Solving day at
Wavell High. The theme was "French" problem solving. Students were given maths, science and building
problems and asked to answer as many questions as possible in a given time frame. The final activity
was to build a free-standing tower with paddle pop sticks and sticky tape. On completion, children placed
the French flag on top. Points were received for correct answers and also for how high their tower was.
One of the Year 6 teams was runner-up in their age division, which was a fantastic effort. Students
reported that some of the questions were quite hard but they had a really good time.
YEAR 1/2 AND YEAR 2
Year 1/2 and Year 2 students built and held "Bugs" at an incursion on Tuesday 10th March. They had a great time learning
about bugs and then they were able to make their own. Here are a few recounts of their activities.
Build- A- Bug
On Tuesday the 10/3/2015 the whole class went to Build – A - Bug. We looked at dead bugs and we even
saw a Rhinoceros Beetle. Then we got to hold a stick insect, it tickled! The teacher said it was trying to
find a branch on our hand!
I had a good time there.
Tahlia Hicks 2C
Build- A- Bug
At a little place at the library, my class and I went to Build –A – Bug. We saw bugs and even held one!
Then we built awesome bugs. Mine was an alien! Then we had to go back and on the way Angus and I
played with them.
I loved Build – A –Bug, I hope it is on next year.
Dylan Hassell 2H
Build- A- Bug
On Tuesday March 10 our class went to Bug-Ed. Firstly Lani showed us bugs and how they protect
themselves. Then we all had a bug in a brick thing. I got a butterfly. Then we saw real live bugs. I didn’t
want to hold a stick insect. We also built a bug.
It was really fun. I wish I could go again.

BugsEd Visit
by Max Molloy 1/2M
Last Tuesday Dr Lani came to our classroom to talk about bug life cycles.
First Dr Lani showed the whole class a slideshow about modern and primitive insects.
After that Dr Lani showed the class her insect collection. She let us pat a Rhinoceros Beetle. Dr Lani showed the class a
Praying Mantis and a Goliath Stick Insect. She showed us insects in resin and then we held a Titan Stick Insect.
Finally Dr Lani gave us an activity book with a stick insect in a vial. She even gave us a magnifying glass and some forceps.
When my stick insect hatches, I hope it will be a she and not a he because she will lay eggs and I will have more stick insects.
I will be able to look at them when they hatch.
BugsEd Visit
by LilianZhao 1/2M
Last Tuesday, Dr Lani came to our classroom to teach us about different kinds of insects.
First Dr Lani showed us a slideshow. She told us that primitive insects have a simple life cycle and modern insects go through
metamorphosis. After the slideshow she asked us some question
After that Dr Lani showed us her insect collection. It was very cool. Then she let us pat a Rhinoceros Beetle. You can’t pat
them hard or they will hiss at you. If they hiss it means that they are scared. When we had finished patting the Rhinoceros
Beetle, she showed us a Praying Mantis and a Goliath Stick Insect. After that Dr Lani let us hold a Titan Stick Insect. It tickled
a lot.
Finally, Dr Lani gave us an insect activity book with a stick insect egg in a vial. There was also a magnifying glass to find bugs
and forceps for picking up rocks, leaves or insects. You must be careful that you don’t squeeze the insects if you pick them up
with the forceps.
I loved when Dr Lani came to our classroom. I learnt lots about insects. Dr Lani told us that boy Rhinoceros beetles have a
horn and girl Rhinoceros beetles don’t. I loved Dr Lani’s insect collection. I had never seen insects like those before. My
favourite insect is the Christmas Beetle. Their wing covers are shiny and smooth and look beautiful.

LOLLY BAGS
At the end of this week, children in Years 3 - 6 will receive a letter and order form for lolly bags.
As the letter explains, all children who order a lolly bag will receive these at the eating break after they have completed the cross country
race.
The lolly bags will be taken to the classrooms by the Senior Leaders early in the day.
I would recommend ordering only one lolly bag for your child however if they have younger siblings who are not participating in the cross
country event and you would like a lolly bag for them, then that will be fine.
In addition to this being a fundraiser for the Canberra trip, it is a good way to re-energise the children after their race.
CANBERRA EASTER RAFFLE
All children going to Canberra will receive a raffle book of 10 tickets to sell this week. All tickets and money must be returned to Mrs
Nelma Wright, no later than Wednesday, the 1st April, so that the raffle can be drawn on Thursday morning.
There will be numerous prizes of Cadbury Creation Family blocks.
Any parents are welcome to buy tickets in this raffle even if your child is not going to Canberra this year. Extra books will be available at
the School Office by this Friday, the 20th March.
Thank you for your support.
Nelma Wright (Canberra Trip Co-ordinator)
SCHOOL COUNCIL SURVEY
Over the last 5 years, our enrolment numbers have continued to increase, which is very pleasing. Our
enrolment information shows that in excess of 60% of our children are living out of the catchment area,
which indicates that many parents are choosing Aspley State School rather than their nearest school.
To gain greater insight into why you chose Aspley State School for your child/children, it would be greatly
appreciated if all parents, especially those out of Aspley's catchment area, could assist us by completing
a very brief survey which is linked below. It should only take a couple of minutes to complete.
When all the data from the survey has been collated I will be happy to report to the Aspley community our
findings.
Thank you for your assistance.

Sunscreen, walking shoes are best and umbrella in case of rain. See Park and Stride Flyer for more details on the
website. PLEASE NOTE : YOU ONLY HAVE TO WALK TWO STREET BLOCKS TO MAKE IT COUNT

directs to the school. Remember to always have your helmet secured on your head. Bikes can be secured near E block
and there is a Scooter park near the entrance of the Library.

CAMP AUSTRALIA NEWS
Shade Sail
Great news!! The Cancer Council Queensland has given us a small grant to assist with putting up a shade sail adjacent to the
back concrete area. This will give the children more shade when having afternoon tea and playing the sacred game of
handball. The parents who stand in the sun peering into the glare while waiting for their children to come off the oval will also
be relieved. Thankyou to Angela Spink and the school for information and assistance with the application.
We are about to put in a grant application to put in a native bush tucker garden outside our room. Hopefully it is as successful.
Program
To celebrate Australian Heritage Week this week the students created two gorgeous dioramas depicting the
Great Barrier Reef. Allison Butler and TamekaWaldon also chose some Aboriginal Design sea creature and bird colouring ins
which are very popular and are being put up around the room.
Holidays
It is that time again already. Only 11 days of school before the Easter Holidays. We have a HERO theme which is proving
popular with the boys. Alex Eliopoulos and Jayce Bullock have already handed in their list of games and activities for Top
Secret Day and Rockstars Day. We have copies of the program on the parent desk for you to take. To book simply go to the
web site and choose the days you want.
Medicare Numbers
A reminder that we still require Medicare numbers for some students. Please bring in your Medicare cards or text the number
to our work phone (0412 203004). Unfortunately we cannot receive photos on our phone.

In extending the community reach of their Soccer Enrichment Program, Aspley State High School will
host the 6thAspley Eagles Challenge Cup on their oval as a day-long, round-robin soccer tournament
between senior primary school students (grades 5 and 6) in the local area. The carnival format consists of
modified games of soccer, with finals at the end of the day.
The event provides an opportunity for schools to win top honours, with Taigum State School currently in
possession of the Hart Sport Aspley Eagles Challenge Cup Trophy. However, our focus for the day is
participation, gaining experience, and most of all, having fun!
Mr Farrow wishes to impress upon the girls that they should feel very proud! This is an exciting
opportunity to represent Aspley State School for the first time ever in this coveted local tournament.
PROFESSIONAL FOOTBALL COACHES ADD “KICK” TO SPARROWS
The Aspley Sparrows Girls Soccer Clinic is poised to go ahead in leaps and bounds with the announcement that North Star
Football Club professional coaches will be leading Monday morning training drills for the next three weeks.
Generously boosting the Sparrows’ skill development at no cost to families, certified and blue-carded coaches will work with
the girls every Monday from 8am sharp beginning March 16th. Grade 3’s Miss Oliver will also continue as Monday’s teacherlead.
As part of their commitment to the North Brisbane community, North Star Football Association Inc., based at O'Callaghan Park
Zillmere, has added Aspley State School to their school development program roster. With a 40-year history, North Star FC is
one of Brisbane’s most successful premier league soccer clubs, encouraging playing opportunities for male and female
participants of all ages from under 6 to open age groups.
Kicking off the Sparrows’ weekly training schedule on March 16th, 23rd and 30th, Aspley State School’s rookies and experienced
players will benefit from Monday’s fun, inclusive and enjoyable football guidance based on North Star’s strategic soccer
development expertise.
As recommended by Football Federation of Australia, their coaches will work with our Sparrows on the “4 core skills”: first
touch; running with the ball; 1-v-1; and striking the ball (passing/shooting).
Professional coaching is a massive boon for the growing Sparrows Girls Soccer program, Aspley State School itself, and of
course our grade 4, 5 and 6 girls who wish to try this increasingly popular female sport in Australia. Nonetheless, Sparrows
Girls Soccer Clinic is only made possible with teacher and parental support. Thank you to the staff and families who volunteer
their time to see girls’ football take off at Aspley!
THURSDAY TRAINING REPLACES WEDNESDAYS
Wednesday morning girls’ soccer training will move to Thursdays from March 19 th due to unforeseen circumstances. We
apologise for any inconvenience to your routine and look forward to seeing as many Sparrows as possible at our Monday,
Thursday and Friday 8am training sessions. Futsal remains at first break on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
Soccer skills training with Aspley Sparrows is entirely flexible. Players can train as much or as little as they want. However,
selection for competitive teams (eg Gala Day or “Aspley Eagles Challenge Cup”) will depend on a number of factors including
(but not limited to) on-field performance, demonstrated team spirit, and commitment to attend training.
