Dear Families,
This will be my last message to you this school year. May I start by extending a sincere thank you for welcoming me as your permanent principal this year. It has been a year of challenges, some thrilling, some not so. In every situation, I have been deeply encouraged by the engagement of the Yeronga State School students, staff and families. The school culture that has been built over the 150 years of the school’s fine history is one we can all be proud to be a part of.
This year we celebrated the 150th anniversary of the school through some highly significant events. As the everchanging face of the global pandemic continues to impact, we were fortunate to be able to host the 150th Year key events. Who can forget the exhilaration of coming together as a community for the fete. This was made extra special due to the significance of the occasion. The 150th Celebration organising committee made up of past and present school staff and parents, and led internally by Chappy Jenny, has been a colossal achievement. I know, that the memorabilia, archival footage and historical treasures that have been painstakingly collated and catalogued over the past few years in preparation will be a testament to the ongoing pride of this great school.
So many student achievements have been celebrated throughout the year. Made possible by the dedicated staff, students and supporting parents. Yeronga State School has a legacy of excellent achievements in sport, athletics, performing arts and academic achievement. So many honours and championships claimed at a regional and state level over 2021 with Yeronga State School in top position. It was an honour to present many of our students with certificates of recognition at the Annual Award Ceremonies held over the past week. What a joy it was to see so many proud families filling the hall to join in the celebration. Proud mums, dads, siblings, grandmas and grandpas. Thankyou for your presence. It was also an honour to announce to the community our incoming School Captains for 2022. I look forward to formally inducting all of our student leaders in February 2022 at our Student Leader Induction Ceremony.
I cannot go without acknowledging the heroes who ensure the wellbeing and best interests of our children front and centre every day. Our PandC staff and army of volunteers who provide care before and after school to our children, made with love tuckshop meals, perfectly fitted uniforms, environmental stewardship, lost property organisation, parent communications through the Parent Representatives and the many, many, volunteers who help out in the library and classrooms every day. We thank you for all you do for our children.
Next year we will have some new and exciting changes to our general curriculum offerings which are responsive to the revised Queensland Curriculum and Reporting Framework whilst expanding and deepening our work aligned to our school vision – Connected, curious and community minded citizens who make a positive difference to our world;
-Two full-time Health and Physical Education Teachers
-A full-time Head of STEM (new Curiosity Centre)
-Introduction of a Visual Arts Teacher
-Increased Music Teacher allocation
-A full-time Guidance Officer
-A Full time Head of Special Education Services
-First Nations Teacher-Aide
-Part-time English as an Additional Language teacher
-Part-time Gifted and Talented Support Teacher
We are expanding student and teacher leadership to align with our four school wide priorities; sustainability, wellbeing, outdoor play and curiosity and creativity. We aim to ensure every student leaves Yeronga, knowing their strengths and developing the learner assets that will carry them through life. That is, to be an effective self-manager, collaborator, thinker, researcher and communicator. Similarly, at Yeronga State School we are deeply committed to ensuring every student’s literacy and numeracy progress is rigorously tracked and responded to. We are refining our whole school approach to tracking and monitoring student data, engagement and inclusion to ensure a highly individualised approach to student learning – know the curriculum, know the student, vary the pathways.
Of course, none of this is meaningful unless young people are firmly grounded in a sense of belonging and unconditional positive regard from and for their community. I extend to you a hearty invite to consider being involved in the life of the school in whatever capacity you can. Be it through a formal PandC Executive Role, Volunteering at the tuckshop, being a parent representative or attending assemblies and school events. Together we are always better.
Our school assembly will change to Fridays at 9.00am from next year. This is hopefully supportive of busy families being able to stay on occasion (or every week) for assembly and parent café after assembly.
Finally, to all our families and students who are leaving us this year, thank you for the role you have played in making our school what it is. I trust the memories of Yeronga State School be fond ones and may your child’s education here be all you had hoped it would be. To all of you returning in 2022, I look for to welcoming you back for another wonderful year.
May each and every one of you have a restful and peaceful break with family and loved ones. Take time to relish the small and precious moments together. They are fleeting yet we all know they are real treasure of our lives.
Sincerely,
Eunice
Principal
CLASS ALLOCATION 2022
Thank you to parents who have emailed in requests for the class placement of children in 2022.
We wish to remind you as to how classes are organised in the school. Classes are formed honouring teachers’ tacit knowledge and understanding of each student’s individual needs, whilst recognising the very strong pastoral care of staff in supporting students. Our teachers know students best in the school context and our process is driven by the discernment of our teachers with an understanding of students’ individual needs and also the needs across the cohort to establish classes for 2022. All requests are considered within the broader context of all the children in the school. We have the best interest of children at the heart of what we do.
On Wednesday 19 January parents will be emailed the class that they will be in for 2022.
We do look forward to another great year at Yeronga State School!!
GET SET FOR PREP SESSIONS
Over the last two Tuesdays, the Prep teachers have been running half hour sessions with the Prep 2022 children. The purpose of this is to establish a smooth transition for new little ones and their families entering the Yeronga Learning Community. The sessions supported parent/ teacher relationships as well as enabled the new children to get to know the Prep Teaching Team. We welcome the new families and loved seeing the children’s smiling faces.
THANK YOU
A huge thank you to the wonderful volunteers that helped out last week at the swimming carnival. From time keepers, to scorers, to sno cones and spectators. We appreciate your support and could not have done it without you all.
Reconciliation Action Plan
Survey Results
We sincerely appreciate the 107 families who participated in our Reconciliation Action Plan Survey, which was published though Schoolzine. The de-identified data collected has provided us with a clear indication of the work to be done in the RAP process, and to establish priorities.
For those who may not have seen the survey, the Yuggera Culture in Community Cluster, Yeronga State School’s Kalari Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Advisory Group, and school staff are developing our Reconciliation Action Plan [RAP].
Our survey respondents knew that Yeronga State School is built on Yuggera Country, which is south of the Brisbane River. What needs to be explained, based on the survey, is what a Reconciliation Action Plan is.
Reconciliation strengthens relationships between the wider Australian community, and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples for the benefit of all Australians. https://www.reconciliation.org.au/reconciliation/what-is-reconciliation/
The Queensland Government’s commitment to reconciliation involves the recognition of businesses, community organisations, educational institutions and government agencies going above and beyond their core business to foster reconciliation and pave the way for a better future for our state. Thousands of organisations have formalised their commitment to reconciliation through a Reconciliation Action Plan. https://awards.premiers.qld.gov.au/qra/
A Reconciliation Action Plan [RAP] is a formal statement which provides a structured, nationally recognised, tried and tested model for a workplace to formalise commitments to reconciliation. A RAP helps to create a community with shared values, goals, and a common language for reconciliation. https://www.narragunnawali.org.au
https://www.reconciliation.org.au/reconciliation-action-plans/who-has-a-rap/
Yeronga’s RAP working group will continue to use your survey responses when developing the RAP. Following the links above will provide more information, and you are welcome to contact Lynette Wood: lwood41@eq.edu.au or 3426 0333 if you have any questions.

The 2021 journey…
And so another year has passed us by, and it has come with a lot more difficulties and challenges than most of us expected. Reflecting on my year, I have learnt to let go of some of the things I’ve always done, and even to adjust some of my expectations. I’ve also found courage to step out and be brave and try new things which has brought a sense of achievement and even hope for some exciting changes in the future.
It can be helpful to look back at your journey across the year, to reflect and consider the direction you are headed, and decide what changes need to be made for the coming year, while making sure to not get stuck in the pain or regret that you might feel for things that didn’t go so well. So when you look back at your year, what have you learnt about yourself? How can you use that knowledge to help you prepare for next year and into the future?
Thank you…
Thank you to the wonderful YSS community for your generosity towards the hamper project. We have enough goodies to encourage 11 families and help them through this season. Thank you also for your ongoing support for the Chaplaincy program and all the projects across the year. I’m looking forward to the new year as I continue to support the needs of the community, and also add some extra fun. I’m really hoping that Camp at School returns in 2022 after being cancelled for the last 2 years!
Please feel free to contact me over the holidays via email if you have any needs, as I would like to keep up with what is happening, particularly in supporting families and staff through any difficult periods. I hope that the summer holidays will give you time to be refreshed and energised for 2022, and that there is lots of fun, joy, and happiness for your family and loved ones as you spend time together. All the best for the season, and let’s hope that 2022 is a brighter and happier year.
Blessings, Chappy Jenny

Running Club

Swimming Carnivals
Senior Swimming Carnival: Lawson! Lawson! Lawson!
Congratulations to our blue house. I joked a while ago, during a period of Kendall dominance in athletics, about re-naming the athletics trophy to the Kendall Cup. Well Lawson have only not won the swimming once since 2011. That is an incredible 9 out of 10 years. It is a mighty effort and long may the success continue although the other houses are all coming closer. To sum up Lawson was 1st with 783, Evans was 2nd with 733, Kendall was 3rd with 698 and Paterson 4th with 664.
Mighty Mighty Samantha C
This year we farewell one of Yeronga State School’s greatest swimmer. Samantha C and her brother have had a similar effect on our record books to the Healy-Johnsons of not so long ago. Well this year Sam has done something no one, boy or girl, at Yeronga SS has done, since I began keeping records from 2003 to the present; she went under the 30 second barrier. To add a little more context to the achievement; she is only 11 and the records include both boys and girls up to the age of 13. It’s a mark that could stand for a very long time. Congratulations on your achievement Samantha! Keep working hard and as well as being a local hero you could be a local Olympic hero in 2032. My fingers are crossed for you and Hayden, but don’t forget to allow yourselves some time just to enjoy sport.

CONGRATULATIONS:
Congratulations to Toby A (Year 5), Otto B, Alexander C, Maggie S and Meegan T (Year 6) who last weekend participated in the Primary State Honours Ensemble Program at the Queensland Conservatorium. This program brings together the most talented primary school musicians from state and private schools throughout Brisbane. The students had an intensive weekend of learning repertoire under an experienced conductor and then presenting a concert on the final day.
Congratulations also to students who recently had AMEB exam performances. Indigo M in Year 5 who completed her Grade 1 viola exam and Ariel M in Year 5 who completed her Grade 3 violin exam.
2022:
We have already had some queries from parents about ensemble rehearsal times/days in 2022. Unfortunately, this cannot be confirmed until early 2022 when the timetables of each Classroom/Instrumental Music Teacher are finalised (we all have to work together to share the rehearsal spaces on our days that we are at Yeronga). We thank you for your patience with this and we will be in contact as soon as we have worked out a final schedule.
Finally, thank you all for your support for the Yeronga State School music program in what has shown to be another year marred by the uncertainty that COVID has brought us. The resilience and tenacity of your children is inspiring and we look forward to another exciting year of music making in 2022.
Yours in Music,
Lauren Easey (Classroom Music Teacher/Instrumental Music Coordinator)
Tamsyn Eastgate (Strings Teacher)
Robyn Rosewarne (Band Teacher)
Alex Grodecki (Band Teacher)

THANK YOU for your support
On behalf of the P&C, THANK YOU to all in our wonderful Yeronga State School community for your support throughout 2022.
This year we celebrated the school's 150th anniversary with the Foundation assembly, and the tremendous Fete which was enjoyed by thousands of people and showcased the talents of our children and our community. Raising $90,000 to support our school, the Fete was only possible due to the help and dedication of all within our school community - Fete Committee and family volunteers, teachers, the school leadership team, sponsors, and our broader community.
While the year has brought some challenges and event cancellations due to unfortunate weather and adaptations to covid restrictions, 2022 has also brought some major highlights including the renovation of the old dental building that will bring much needed and exciting new classrooms, STEM and arts spaces and administration spaces to our school, and the P&C-funded grounds renovation project that will provide new sporting, outdoor learning and nature play areas for our children and teachers.
After a hiatus in 2020, we also enjoyed the return of some much-loved community activities like the Trivia Night, Mother's Day and Father's Day stalls, and sno cone stalls.
Volunteers are the lifeblood of the P&C and together you support our wonderful Tuckshop, Uniform Shop and YOSHC teams to provide vital services for our school community, and run a range of fundraising and community building activities, including the Easter raffle, World Teachers' Day morning tea, the Prep Welcome picnic, and Welcome Morning Tea for new families to our school.
Thanks to you and our fellow parents and carers, terrific teachers, and school leadership and administration teams, and all of our P&C staff team members, our school is a vibrant, connected and supportive community that comes together to provide a range of important resources to support our children and their education. Your contribution to our school community is immense and appreciated. We wish you a wonderful summer holiday and Christmas festive season and look forward to seeing you back at school in January 2022.
