I would like to draw attention to all the student blogs. Two latest pieces of work should be published as of this date and it is a great opportunity for parents and your children to visit other students blogs and see what they have produced.
In particular, I would like to draw attention to Nathan C’s exposition on “Should Children be Smacked”. This piece is a continuation of our Child Rights project – please visit the following link and read the post in full:

Week 10 Newsletter
Hoping everyone has an excellent holidays. The boys as a whole performed extremely well in their Westwood Maths tests recently, with many of them scoring state average scores (previously many were below the state average). Please keep your child practicing their times-tables and division at home during the holidays. 10 mins a day will greatly improve their skills in all areas if these two areas are honed.
Next term on Wednesday and Thursday afternoons, I will be offering tutoring again after school from the time of 3:30pm till 4:30pm due to demand in the areas of English and Mathematics. I only can take four students per session so that I can achieve the maximum learning potential out of each lesson.
Unfortunately, I will need to charge $15 per session and I will be taking students on a first come, first serve basis. If you believe that your son could benefit from this, please contact me at michael.koutsoukos@hackhame.sa.edu.au
Cheers
Michael Koutsoukos

Week 8 Newsletter
As the term draws to an end, please look out for published work on your child’s blog. Two topics will hopefully be published by the end of the term, the first being on the major project on the U.N. Declarations / Factory Act of 1802.
The newest topic being an exposition on “Should Smacking of Children be Illegal?”. We have undertaken this in preparation of the NAPLAN and majority of the students have made a quick start.
This weeks newsletter contains some samples of students work. Please continue supporting your child in their learning!
Cheers
Michael Koutsoukos
