Monday—Thursday 8.30am til 3.45pm February Friday 8.30am til 3.30pm 2021 FIRST AID TIPS: 03 8691 6900 COVID 19 Vs The Common Cold or Flu 202-226 Newbury Boulevard Craigieburn 3064 There are not many differences in symptoms of these illnesses so we ask that if [email protected] your child has even a slight cold that you keep them home. www.newburyps.vic.edu.au If any children come to school with a fever, cough, headache, runny nose, sore throat or any other flu-like symptoms they will be sent home immediately. COMMUNICATION REGARDING CONCERNS: If you have a concern regarding your child, please ensure that you speak to your child’s classroom teacher as a first port of call. If they are not able to resolve your concern, the classroom teacher will then speak to another relevant member of staff to assist them. HOMEWORK: Homework is one way of supporting student learning and connecting families with the learning of their children. At Newbury Primary School we follow the Department of Education homework guidelines which state that: Homework in Prep-Year 4: Will mainly consist of daily reading to, with and by parents/carers or older siblings. Enables the extension of class work by practising skills or gathering of extra information or materials. Homework in Years 5 and 6: Should include daily independent reading. May extend class work, projects and assignments, essays and research. DROPPING OFF AND PICKING UP: When dropping off and picking up students, please practice road safety at all times. It has been reported that a number of cars are double parking, parking on the roundabout or on the curb which poses a huge risk for students. Parking inspectors often visit schools and will issue parking infringements to anyone found posing a danger or parking illegally. We have also noticed a large number of parents crossing in the middle of the road and not using the provided school crossings. Please demonstrate road safety by using our school crossings. BIKES AND SCOOTERS: At Newbury Primary School, we promote health and fitness and it is terrific to see many students riding their bikes or scooters to school. Please make sure your child is wearing a helmet and that once they enter the school grounds, they walk their bike or scooter in. The bike sheds are located at the end of the building, near Classrooms 16 and 25. ENTERING AND EXITING THE SCHOOL/ GARDENS: Please note that all gates around the school are open for entry and exit. We are trying very hard to beautify our gardens. Please respect our grounds and do not walk through the gardens. SUPERVISION BEFORE AND AFTER SCHOOL: Please note that supervision for students before school commences at 8:45am and after school until 3:25pm. Staff are not on duty beyond these times. Please do not drop off your child before this time or leave them waiting after school beyond this time as they will not be supervised. ABSENCES: There have been a significant number of student absences which is concerning. Teachers plan sequential lessons which can be disrupted by non-attendance. Please ensure your child is at school on every day possible. If your child is absent, please call the school number on 8691 6900 and leave a message to explain their absences or enter it on Sentral. All absences must be accounted for. LATE ARRIVALS: We have had quite a number of students arriving to school late and doing so on a regular basis. Please be aware that not only does arriving to school late impact on your child’s learning time, it also distracts the class when students enter during a lesson. Please ensure that your child is at school, in their class and ready to commence instruction at 9:00am. A reminder that students can enter their classrooms from 8:50am. ALL DAY GRAZING: At Newbury Primary School, we understand that students need food to fuel their brain and that they are hungry during the day. Therefore, we encourage students to bring along healthy snacks that they can munch on in class. Some ideas include: carrot sticks, cheese, rice crackers, fresh or dried fruit, yoghurt or vegetables. Please refrain from providing food that may affect any anaphylactic students. BIRTHDAY CELEBRATIONS: We understand that you may want to do something special at school for your child to celebrate their birthday, however please be aware that due to the current restrictions no items or food are able to be brought to school to be given or shared with others. Thank you for your understanding. ASSEMBLY: Whole school assemblies are not able to go ahead at this time due to social distancing requirements. Instead, we will be producing Newbury News episodes on a regular basis which will be posted on Sentral and the school website. Please keep an eye out on these. STUDENT EMPOWERMENT LEADERS: Developing leadership skills is an important part of Newbury Primary School and we aim to provide students with many opportunities to grow in confidence and leadership. Student Empowerment Leaders work together to be the voice of the students within the school. They demonstrate the school values of respect, integrity, effort and community on a daily basis. Congratulations to our 2021 Student Empowerment leaders. We look forward to working closely with you to develop your leadership capacity.

He obtained his Ph.D. degree from DTU in 2012. His major research interests are microbial electrochemistry and biotechnology to support the 2nd, 6th, 7th, 12th, and 13th UN Sustainable Development Goals through sustainable water treatment, resource recovery, CO2 capture and utilization, biosynthesis, and environmental bioremediation & monitoring. His research has been highly innovative and contributed considerably to improving the fundamental understanding of microbial electrochemistry and developing cutting-edge, efficient, and economic-affordable technical solutions in the Water-Food-Energy-Climate nexus for sustainable development and green transition. This way the wastewaters and greenhouse gases (e.g., CO2), which otherwise are treated as pollutants undergoing energy and carbon-intensive treatment processes, are recovered and upcycled in a form of valuable bioproducts such as chemicals, biofuels, proteins, and energy. Most of the SCI publications are in top journals in the field such as Energy & Environmental Science, Trends in Biotechnology, One Earth, Environmental Science & Technology, and Water Research. According to Google Scholar, his works have been cited over 3600 times and with an H index of 34. Among these, 9 papers have each citation over 100 times.

  • New Hopes for Drugs Against COVID-19 Come from the Sea
    marine drugs Editorial New Hopes for Drugs against COVID-19 Come from the Sea Orazio Taglialatela-Scafati Department of Pharmacy, School of Medicine and Surgery, University of Naples Federico II, Via D. Montesano 49, I-80131 Naples, Italy; [email protected]; Tel.: +39-081678509 The latest chapter of the historic battle of humans against pathogenic microbes is the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS)-like coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), responsible for COVID-19, a respiratory disease declared a global pandemic by the WHO on March 11, 2020. Less than one year later, at the beginning of February 2021, nearly 104 million cases and 2.3 million deaths have been reported worldwide [1], but the effects on the global economy (and on our psychological wellbeing) will probably last for years. The progressive approval and utilization of effective vaccines, including two unprece- dented mRNA-based ones, is very good news that was largely unexpected only a few months ago, and that could allow us to watch with a cautious optimism to the months to come. However, the full control of COVID-19 cannot rely only on vaccines; it will also require efficacious therapeutics, which could possibly be used to face future related infec- tions more efficiently. Although several molecules are currently undergoing clinical trials, the single FDA-approved drug is remdesivir [2], alone or in combination with baricitinib, indicated to treat severe COVID-19 cases in adults and children (≥12 years old). Repurposing existing drugs has been a very popular strategy among scientists search- ing for possible COVID-19 treatments, especially those trying to block the recognition between the SARS-CoV-2 spike glycoprotein and the cellular angiotensin-converting en- zyme 2 (ACE2).

More elementary particles were being Introduction discovered and quantum mechanics evolved to accommodate these and to predict more complex as yet undiscovered states of condensed matter We begin with the creation of the Periodic Table in 1869 by Dimitri using the ideas of fields similar to the electromagnetic fields of Maxwell in Mendeleev and others, modified and extended in the 1890’s by the discovery 1865. of further elements the inert gases.
