Half way through.

Fri, Jul 4th, 2025

We’ve wrapped up Term 2 with pride and purpose! This week, we were lucky to welcome Mr Stubbs into the classroom to talk about discrimination and the importance of being an upstander. It was powerful to see students already demonstrating these behaviours in the playground and classroom.

Another highlight was our Play Is The Way Championship Day, what a fantastic event! The students showed excellent teamwork and joy throughout the day. Well done for leading our school through the PiTW chants.

A huge congratulations to our High Potential Learners, who completed their program after committing many recess and lunch times. Their dedication and effort were outstanding, and they’ve done themselves proud.

To top it off, our class celebration was a sweet success. Students designed and created 3D snack vessels, then brought in their favourite treats to enjoy. It was a fun way to finish the term, complete with a sugar high!

We want to sincerely thank all families for their continued support. The students have matured so much, and we are incredibly proud of their growth and hard work this term.

Wishing everyone a safe and restful break!
 

Welcome back! We hope all our students and families enjoyed a safe, restful holiday break. It’s been wonderful to see students return with such a positive attitude, ready to continue the respectful and mature behaviours we celebrated at the end of Term 2.

This term we’re diving straight into exciting experiences with Part 2 of our camp is just around the corner, with students heading off to enjoy Jesus Christ Superstar. We can’t wait to see them shine once again beyond the classroom.

We will also be celebrating NAIDOC Week early in the term. This is a special opportunity to honour and learn more about the history, culture, and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples—an important time for reflection and appreciation.
