Loxton Primary School The school consists of 12 classes with 250 students. We pride ourselves on the positive relationships we foster and build with students and families. Why?

www.loxtonps.sa.edu.au Loxton Primary School is an R - 6 school situated on the the southern side of the River Murray, in South Australia’s Riverland, approximately 250 km from Adelaide. As the local community school, we take great pride in providing high quality teaching and learning experiences for all students. We focus on strengths and encourage our students to be the best they can be. Our students are supported by a Leader of Wellbeing, a Pastoral Care Worker, Specialist Teachers in Physical Education and Health, Technologies and H.A.S.S (Humanities and Social Sciences) and School Services Officers. We have an explicit literacy approach and whole school agreements in literacy and numeracy, supporting consistent teaching across the school. We offer a variety of extra-curricular opportunities for students across all year levels. Our school has excellent facilities including both a Junior Primary and Upper Primary designated playground, an all-weather outdoor stadium and a 5 bay kitchen. Our Vision 'Dream Believe Learn Achieve' provides us with the 'What' we want for our students and this is clearly supported by our clear focus on our School Values, providing the 'How' we are going to achieve this. The values are embedded in everything we do. The School Values are:

How good is this weather?! How good are these kids?! And seriously… how good is our school?!

If these happy faces don’t sum up Loxton Primary School, we don’t know what does!

Throughout the week, classes have enjoyed some well-earned free time as part of their PALs rewards, and the good vibes have been everywhere!

We're wrapping up the term today with sunshine, mates, laughs, fun and plenty of smiles. And isn't that exactly what school should be about!?!

Have the BEST holidays, crew! We’ll see you in Term 4! ✌️

𝗬𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝟲 𝗖𝗮𝗺𝗽 𝗮𝘁 𝗡𝘂𝗻𝘆𝗮𝗿𝗮.

Our Year 6 students had a fantastic couple of days at Nunyara Camp earlier this week, taking part in the Beyond Limits Learning Program. Through activities like tree climbing, billy carts, brain teasers, the Amazing Race and tribal games, students built teamwork, confidence and resilience while stepping outside their comfort zones.

A visit to Cleland Wildlife Park was another highlight, with students enjoying the chance to learn about Australian wildlife and some even meeting ‘Brownie’ the koala.

We are so proud of the enthusiasm and positive attitude our students showed throughout the camp. Thank you to our Year 6 teachers, staff and Susan for supporting this memorable experience.

𝗬𝗘𝗟 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝘂𝗺.

Last Wednesday our Young Environmental Leaders attended their latest YEL Forum, with a special focus on the importance of our precious water resources.

Students explored water variability and river management, learnt how locks and weirs work, and even built their own mini river systems. They also toured a wetland regulating structure and learnt about wetlands, environmental watering and water quality.

It was a fantastic hands-on day of learning, giving our students a greater understanding of how we can care for and protect the River Murray and our local environment.

A big thank you to everyone who shared their knowledge and expertise with our YEL students!

𝗣𝗔𝗟𝘀 𝗥𝗲𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱!

MP6 have shown fantastic commitment to our school values this term, consistently working hard and making positive choices in the classroom and around the school. Their efforts were recognised with the PALs reward after earning the most tokens in the first 5 weeks!

To celebrate, students enjoyed a fun trip to the Pioneer Playground and a special treat last Friday!

A big thank you to Mr. Kruger for organising such a great reward, and congratulations to all of our MP6 students. You should be very proud of yourselves!

We now look forward to seeing which class will be our next PALs reward winners! We can’t wait to see what’s in store for them!
