Farewell

As this is my final newsletter article, I would like to take the opportunity to thank the Bowen State School community for their generosity and support.

I am proud to say that during my time at Bowen State School we have been able to;

• Increase the whole school attendance to ensure students are accessing their education
• Decrease behaviour incidents and reduce suspensions
• Improve PBL Systems and Processes
• Introduce whole school sports carnivals
• Improve learning outcomes for students – 2018 NAPLAN results
• Increase the quality of oral language outcomes for Prep students (Communities of Practice Project)
• Introduce Instructional Coaching Cycles with Teaching staff

The students of Bowen State School…wow, where to start…Throughout my time, our students have demonstrated determination, growth, and resilience. I have been so proud to be a part of their educational journey and have no doubt that they will achieve great things in life.

Special mention must also go to the BSS P&C who work tirelessly to support our students and have supported a number of requests since my arrival including; supporting sports carnivals, PBL prizes & badges, attendance awards and camps (just to name a few).

I have thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to work in this great school with a range of staff and students, I hope the great work continues into the future.

Kind Regards,

Mrs Elizabeth Mayo
