Booligal Public school actively fosters the core values of Public Education.The school is well resourced with excellent facilities for its students, including stimulating learning spaces, a well–resourced library and large playground areas. The school plays an important role in the community and is seen as a focal point for many community events.

Collaboratively ,teachers , parents and members of the wider community aim to build a dynamic , positive and inclusive learning culture where all children can realise their potential..Booligal Public School benefits from equity funding, which is used to support student learning, participation in extra –curricular activities and excursions. Self-assessment and school achievement Self-assessment using the School Excellence Framework This section of the Annual Report outlines the findings from self–assessment using the School Excellence Framework, school achievements and the next steps to be pursued. This year our school undertook self–assessment using the School Excellence Framework. The framework supports public schools throughout NSW in the pursuit of excellence by providing a clear description of high quality practice across the three domains of Learning, Teaching and Leading. In 2018 staff at Booligal Public School assessed themselves against the School Excellence Framework. In the domain of Learning the school assessed itself as being at the following levels–: Our self–assessment process will assist the school to refine our school plan, leading to further improvements in the delivery of education to our students. 1. Learning Culture – Sustaining and Growing 2. Wellbeing – Sustaining and Growing 3. Curriculum and Learning – Delivering 4. Assessment and Reporting – Working towards Delivering 5. Student Performance Measures – Working towards Delivering In 2018 we continued to focus on developing the learning elements of Curriculum and Learning and Assessment Data was collected regularly and analysed to determine the future directions for students. We continued to implement the continuum tracking system modelled on the Hay Public School model while undertaking professional learning in Learning Progressions implementation. In the domain of Teaching the school assessed itself as being at the following levels–: 1. Effective Classroom Practice – Working towards Delivering Page 3 of 16 Booligal Public School 1303 (2018) Printed on: 31 May, 2019 2. Data Skills and Use – Working towards Delivering 3. Collaborative Practice – Delivering 4. Learning and Development – Delivering 5. Professional Standards – Working towards Delivering In 2018 we continued to focus on developing collaborative practices across the school and wider learning communities. Teachers worked together across schools to improve teaching practices for particular student groups. This was achieved by the continuation of the collaborative learning community with Carrathool Public School, Hay Public School , Moulamein Public School and other Educational providers. Formal processes were put in place to meet and work together on specific targeted areas; for example Progressions implementation, Improving Narrative writing, Poetry writing and Robotics and Coding. In the domain of Leadership the school assessed itself as being at the following levels–: 1. Leadership –Delivering 2. School Planning, Implementation and Reporting – Delivering 3. School Resources – Delivering 4. Management Practices and Processes – Delivering In 2018 we focused on further developing positive relationships with the parental and wider school community. This was achieved by continuing the concept of Super Friday whereby students undertook extra–curricular activities at Hay Public School , Hay School of the Air and Moulamein Public School. This was possible because of the unfailing support from the parental body. All parents continue to play an important role at Booligal Public School ensuring the consolidation of a very positive school culture. Our self–assessment process will assist the school to refine the strategic priorities in our School Plan, leading to further improvements in the delivery of education to our students.

Overall summary of progress Successful sourcing of external partnerships in the community of Hay to provide extra–curricular activities to support student social ,academic, creative and physical growth( Super Friday) In discussion with Tutors involved in the Super Friday Extension program students undertook the study of the guitar in correlation with the further study of the ukulele. Students performed twice as the support act for visiting musicians in a public arena. Students felt positive about their achievements with all students willing to participate in extra curricula activities and perform in front of peers. High engagement was evident in all students. Skill development was evident in all students in all targeted areas. Social development was evident through the establishment of inter–school friendships between Booligal, Carathool and Hay Public School. Due to the loss of our face to face Japanese language teacher at the end of 2017 the school successfully adopted an innovative learning practice by employing the Japanese teacher to deliver lessons by ADOBE connect from Broken Hill to ensure the language opportunity was not lost. Initially the teacher was employed for a full day per week, however a financial adjustment was necessary to align with the school budget and the lessons evolved to fit into a half day format. Student well–being –Yoga( school GA with Yoga qualifications) was introduced for the students on a trial basis and was then subsequently integrated into the curriculum in an ongoing and regular capacity. The students derived enormous benefits :enhanced flexibility, strength and coordination. In addition, increased concentration, ability to relax and well–being.

    Tracking A history of the theDragon Chinese in the Riverina EDUCATION KIT - PRIMARY The Migration Heritage Centre at the Powerhouse Museum is a New South The Museum of the Riverina is assisted Wales Government initiative supported by the Community Relations Commission by the NSW Government through Arts NSW for a Multicultural New South Wales. www.migrationheritage.nsw.gov.au Tracking A history of the theDragon Chinese in the Riverina Tracking the Dragon investigates the history of Chinese migration and settlement in the Riverina and features a range of significant objects and photographs. It reveals a complex and poignant story examining the public and private lives of the Chinese Australian migrant experience. Through this exhibition and education kit students will discover a variety of aspects of the Chinese Australian migrant experience including work, leisure, family life, religion and race relations. In doing so students will develop an appreciation for both the challenges overcome and accomplishments achieved by Chinese Australians in our region in the late 19th century. Exploring key themes of endurance, resourcefulness and reinvention many of which remain relevant to the Australian migrants experience today. This exhibition and supporting primary education kit addresses learning outcomes from a variety of stage 2 & 3 key learning areas including Chinese, Creative Arts, English, HSIE and Mathematics. This exhibition and education kit may be of particular value to ESL students as they may readily connect with the themes and ideas explored and relate these to their own life experiences. Give your students the chance to embark on a learning journey through this significant part of our region’s history, which up until now has remained largely untold.
