NEWSLETTER | TERM 4 | WEEK 1 | 15 OCT 2026
Good afternoon parents and caregivers,
Welcome to Term Four! As we begin the final term of 2026, I would like to extend a warm welcome back to all students, staff and families. I hope the holiday break provided an opportunity to rest, recharge and enjoy time with loved ones.
The end of last term marked an important milestone in our ongoing school development, with students moving into our new learning spaces. As we settle into these areas, planning continues for the next stage of our growth, including additional classrooms and the extension of the parent car park. We are pleased to report that Stage Five documentation is nearing completion.
I would also like to congratulate our selected Year Five and Year Six students who represented TSH during Loud Shirt Day celebrations. Their confident presentations of their Power of Speeches at events across the city, including Parliament House, were a credit to themselves and our school community. Thank you to the TSH team for supporting and preparing our students for this wonderful experience.
Please note the following important reminders:
· Classroom doors open at 8:15am. The school day concludes at 2:50pm.
· Students should not arrive before 8:10am unless they are supervised by a parent or guardian.
· Families using Kiss and Drive should not arrive before 8:10am or 2:40pm.
· Please observe all City of Wanneroo parking regulations and be considerate of nearby residents.
Term Four is a particularly busy and rewarding time of the year, filled with learning opportunities, celebrations and community events. Please refer regularly to the Parent Calendar to ensure you remain informed of upcoming dates and activities.
Wishing everyone a lovely weekend ahead!
God bless

Dear Families and Caregivers,
A massive welcome back to all our families! I can’t believe we are already at the start of Term 4. The year has gone so quickly, and it has been wonderful to see so many students hit the ground running this week.
Yesterday, our Pre-Primary to Year 2 students participated in a Road Safety incursion, reinforcing important messages about staying safe around roads. Opportunities like these help our students develop their awareness and confidence as road users.
Over the holidays, our new basketball rings were installed, and they are already proving very popular! We are also looking forward to some new sports equipment arriving soon. A huge thank you to our P&F for providing these additions for our students, and a special shout-out to Boomering for their support with the new rings.
Next week, all students in Years 1–6 will complete PAT testing in Reading and Numeracy. This testing is completed by all CEWA schools and provides valuable information to inform our teaching and support student learning.
We often encourage our students to “put their best foot forward”, and next week is another opportunity to do just that. Our message is simple: read carefully, have a go and try your best. We encourage students to focus on what they can control, including their effort and positive approach.
I look forward to a positive and rewarding final term together.
God Bless
Kadir Mastan and Brooke Davison
Get Pedalling – Wednesday 28 October!
In Week 3, we will celebrate WA Bike Month by encouraging students and families to ride to school on Wednesday 28 October!
WA Bike Month celebrates bike riding and encourages everyone to enjoy a healthy, active and environmentally friendly way to travel. It is a wonderful opportunity to get outside, build confidence on two wheels and enjoy the journey to school together.

Please remember to wear a correctly fitted helmet, check that your bike is ready to ride and plan a safe route with your family.
