24.01.2022 Our Kindy B students watched the Yirra Yaakin Company performance of Bilya Kaatijin (Fresh water learning) on Thursday morning. The story was about how the kep (water) in the bilya (river) and binjar (lake) became dirty and polluted because of rubbish and other things going into it. The djil-djit (fish) were noitj (dying). Yaakan (turtle), Marlee (black swan) and Kooyar (frog) went on a journey to help Waagyl (the creation snake) fix the waters. ... The Kindy students remembered the message of the play - that we should not litter and must to take care of our waterways - and painted some amazing pictures of the story. #Lockridgestrong

21.01.2022 Congratulations on a job very well done to our 7 Head Girl and 3 Head Boy nominees who did themselves, their families and our school proud today as they presented their speeches. The 10 students did a superb job illustrating why they were well suited to the leadership role and why the Year 3-6 students and staff should vote for them. #lockridgestrong

14.01.2022 Dear Parents/Carers, As part of our role in the community, it is essential that we communicate ways to keep everyone safe. At times, there are situations that confront our students before and after school, including coming into contact with unknown persons (or strangers). A small number of communicated issues in the past few school days give reason for me to once again remind everyone about the best ways to remain safe when moving to and from school. The incidents were:... 1. Students reported being spoken to by an elderly man before school. Whilst the communication appeared harmless and no incident occurred, the conversation caused some children to feel uncomfortable and report the matter to their teachers. 2. Students engaged in discussion through the fence with a local resident, who was parking his car in a driveway. Whilst the communication appeared harmless and no incident occurred, students are instructed to not converse with unknown people off the school site. 3. Students reported being watched and photographed by an unknown person in a nearby house. This matter was forwarded to the WA Police who have reported that there were no concerns when investigating the matter. In light of these issues, I urge all students to take care at all times, including when making their way to and from school, and to report anything suspicious to parents, school and the police. Options to report may include calling 131 444, contacting the local station to report an incident to police (and only use 000 in an emergency) or 1800 333 000 to reach Crime Stoppers. Here are some simple suggestions to help your child stay safe. Please ask your child to: *Always travel in company; *Walk on the right hand side of the road so you face oncoming traffic; *Wherever possible, leave space between yourself and the roadway; *Stay in areas that are well lit; *Stay in view avoid going into areas that are hidden from view (such as parkland bush or behind shopping centres) and plan trips to avoid such locations; *Be alert earphones and headphones can reduce your awareness considerably; *If a passing car stops nearby never get too close; *Do not hesitate to run from a situation in which you feel at risk; *Report suspicious behaviour to parents, school and the police, noting number plates of cars and/or clothing or distinguishing features of individuals. If you have any concerns, please feel free to contact me at school. Mike Mount-Bryson Principal
