orld Teachers Day
The 31st of October was World Teachers Day. We would like to take this opportunity to
thank all our teaching staff for their wonderful work and the support that they give to
our students. At Hendon we are very lucky to have such professional and committed teaching staff
who play a critical role in the lives of our children as educators and mentors. We celebrated World
Teachers Day at Hendon with a special morning tea yesterday.

On Wednesday night two of our SRC executive members Nik and Ana
presented a very comprehensive report to Governing Council about SRC’s achievements for
the year. We would like to commend Nik and Ana on the confident way they spoke to the
Governing Council members and for their outstanding leadership this year as SRC Executive
members. Our SRC has had a very successful and productive year raising money to support a
variety of charities, organising whole school events and making many decisions that have
improved the facilities and activities for our students. Thanks also to Chris Elliott for her
outstanding ability to develop our young leaders and engage them fully in their schooling.

Congratulations to our Upper Primary Festival Choir who performed at the
Festival Theatre on the 19th September, 2014. They did us very proud. From
our choir we had two soloists, Rita and Christy and Alana was a member of
the North Orchestra as a bass guitarist. She performed in four concerts at
the Festival Theatre and two at the North Metro Festival in Gawler. Alana
began learning to play the bass guitar in year 5, through our Hendon
Instrumental Hub program. Well done to all students involved!
