The Senior & Middle trampolines have been repaired & are in use again. Happy jumping everyone! The oval & surrounds have been tidied over the last few weeks & are looking great for Jacanarama on Wednesday 31 March. Come & enjoy some exercise with your child on school grounds. A trampoline will be installed in Playground 2 ready for Term 2 & a new hammock will be installed in Playground 1 to replace the wire hammock.

A lot of maintenance works are occurring during the term break trees are being trimmed, carpet replaced, sail shades removed & stored & the walking track & seats in Playground 6 repaired ready for the new term.

Capital Works Program (CWP)

The excitement for the master plan is building! (That was not meant to be a pun!) 

The school, in conjunction with VSBA and the Region has interviewed three architectural companies and we have made a selection. Musk Studios were the successful architects. The first planning meeting with the selected company was last week. This discussed the parameters of the brief from the VSBA perspective. This was followed by a meeting on site with the architects this week and a tour of the school. 

Stage one of the planning process is developing a schematic design for the whole site.  This is expected to be developed in the next 11 weeks.  

We will have a workshop for students, staff and parents to discuss their ideas and future projection of new programs and the facilities to assist in the delivery of the program. There are tight timelines set by VSBA for these projects to keep them on track. I will keep you informed of development along the journey.
