World Oceans Day 

Thank You World Oceans Day 2025 

On Monday the 4th of August was World Oceans Day, we encouraged students and teachers to dress up in a costume that related to the ocean or to wear warm comfortable casual clothes for the day. We asked students to bring in a gold coin donation for the Dolphin Research Institute. 

We are proud to announce that our St Simon’s school community raised over $300 for the Dolphin Research Institute. What a fantastic effort! 

This day reminds us about the important role the ocean has in the lives of ourselves and others. Our eight Victorian Marine Ambassadors students did an amazing job sharing their knowledge about marine life and how we can keep our oceans clean. The Prep and Grade 1 students enjoyed the talks organised by our Victorian Marine Ambassadors. 

Thank you to Nathaniel Pitruzzello, Keira Bartholomeusz, Emmett Baker and Jadon De Silva, as well as our Grade 5 Marine Ambassadors: Ariana Duke, Jayden Walther, Neve Stone and Alana Powell for organising the day and it was a great success. We may even have some future primary school teachers in the making!
