ANZAC Day 2021

Thank you to the students, parents and staff who attended the ANZAC Day March on Sunday. Here are a few photos taken by the talented Mrs Rheinberger. It was a beautiful service and we were proud to represent our school as part of the Quirindi community for this very special event.

We received this lovely email this morning and wanted to share it with our school community.

Dear Principals,

The President and members of the Quirindi RSL Sub-Branch thank you for the participation of students in our ANZAC Day March and Services on Sunday, 25th April 2021. Please pass on to all, yourself, your staff, parents and students, our sincere appreciation and thanks.

Kind Regards,

Ken Pengilley

Mothers Day Stall

Our 2021 Mothers Day Stall will be held on Thursday the 6th of May at 2:00pm. You can pay via the Qkr App and gifts are $10 each. It would be helpful if you could make these payments by Wednesday afternoon via Qkr to help speed up the process on Thursday. We will run the stall from the canteen this year so as not to disrupt the current learning space in the library.
