Welcome

I would like to welcome all the new families to our fortnightly newsletter and welcome back to all the returning families.

Each fortnight we release the school newsletter. It is a great source of information for important notices, messages, upcoming events and also a way to celebrate the children and things that happen around the school.

Newsletters can be located on the school website if you wish to look any of them up.

If you wish to subscribe to the newsletter, please look for the Subscribe widget at the bottom of the website homepage.

Annual Parent Consent Forms

All families should have received their annual consent form packs. It is important that these are returned in a timely manner.
If you have not received this, could you please contact the office to arrange for a pack.

Annual parent consents are needed for:
* Local Excursions
* Special Treats
* Cooking Consent
* Headlice Inspection Consent.
* ICT use consent.

A one off Photography, Filming and Recording student consent may be in the pack. (This only needs to be done once or if you need to change what you are consenting to).

Swimming Carnival

On Friday 6th March, we will be heading to Crib Point Swimming Pool for the annual school swimming carnival. The event is to build school spirit and have fun. It is a whole school event from prep to grade 6.



Permission forms will be coming home shortly.

For the parents/carers who are concerned about their child's swimming ability.

For the less confident swimmers, we will have staff and older students in the pool. Some may need to be carried by the older student for the event. This has been very successful in the past.

The school only uses the shallow end of the pool, where student and staff helping are at standing height.

Please consider coming to support your child. All parents / carers / grandparents are welcome to attend the event. Only volunteers with valid Working With Children Checks are allowed to assist in the change rooms.

KHPS Super Start Program 

The first two weeks of 2026 have seen our students thrive in the KHPS Super Start Program. Focused on wellbeing, positive relationships, and clear routines, Super Start has helped students feel safe, settled, and ready to learn.

Daily Morning Circles, lessons in self-regulation and wellbeing, and activities reinforcing our values—Respectful, Responsible, Resilient, Safe—have built strong connections and consistent expectations across the school.

Students are engaged, classrooms are calm, and the foundation is set for a successful year ahead.

Starting the Year Strong with SWPBS

At KHPS, we use SWPBS (School-Wide Positive Behaviour Support) to create a safe, respectful, and positive learning environment for all students. This year, students will continue to learn and practice our school values—Respectful, Responsible, Resilient, Safe—throughout classrooms, playgrounds, and daily routines.

SWPBS helps students make positive choices, build strong relationships, and feel confident at school—setting everyone up for a successful year ahead!

Wellbeing Tip of the Month: Practice Gratitude
Take a few minutes each day to think about or write down three things you are grateful for—big or small. It could be a sunny day, a fun moment at school, or a kind friend.

Practicing gratitude helps you feel happier, more positive, and more resilient, and it’s something the whole family can do together!
