PRINCIPAL’S REPORT
Mr James Whitla
It was wonderful to see our Year 6 students celebrating
their achievements at Tuesday’s Graduation Ceremony.
These students could well be our next Lawyers,
Doctors, Politicians, Teachers, Chefs, Olympians,
Musicians and Artists, and if they are to be, then I can
assure you that we are all in VERY VERY good hands.
Every one of our graduating students has contributed
to making Edithvale Primary School a great place to
be. We are exceptionally proud of their efforts and
recognise that as individuals and as a collective group
they will provide great support and leadership for their
generation in the years to follow.
To our Year 6 students: “Do not go where the path may
lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a
trail”- Ralph Waldo Emerson
We wish them well as they embark on the next part of
their learning journey.
A FINAL FAREWELL
We would like to wish the following students and their
families farewell and good luck as they leave our
Edithvale Primary School community. We thank them
for their ongoing support over a number of years:
Raj Kaur, Shavaughn Zampese, Bessy Sabu, Thomas
Jacobs, Banjo Sinclair, Matilda Sinclair, Ruby Jordan,
Lilly Halton and Eugen Titov.
We also wish to say goodbye and good luck to the
following students who will be leaving us to go to

There are also some farewells for members of staff: Mr
Jason Maloney, who has worked with us throughout
semester 2 will be sorely missed by our students and
staff. He has made a huge impact in such a short time
and we wish him well as he commences his role at
Kilvington Grammar in 2016
Mrs Liz Walton was farewelled by staff- both past and
present- this week. Liz has become an institution at
our school over 28 years of cleaning it! Her
contribution to the culture of our school has been
immense. Liz has always managed to go above and
beyond her job description through turning heaters on
for students and staff on cold winter mornings, to
ensuring our rooms smell fresh and that our school
sparkles! We wish her all the very best in her
retirement and salute her for a job well done.
Our school would not be the great school that it is
without the hard work and support we get from you –
so many parents and family members help us with our
programs and special events; generously giving their
time, energy and of course, enthusiasm. Thank you
everyone.
Finally, I would like to thank all members of staff at
Edithvale Primary School for their hard work and
commitment to our students and their learning
throughout 2015.
I wish all of you a very happy Christmas and I hope you
have a wonderful holiday.
