Thank-you to Lee Atkinson and parents for coaching and scoring throughout the day.
Prep - Year 2 Cross Country
P-2 House Cross Country:
Congratulations to all of our Prep – Year 2 students, who competed in the House Cross Country yesterday. The weather held up for the morning, which was great. We had lots of smiles, some tears and a sea of red, blue, green and yellow. We are so proud of everyone’s efforts and a big shout out to our preps, who ran their very first race at Croydon Hills Primary School! I would also like to thank all the house captains, parents/grandparents and staff who volunteered their time to help make this event a wonderful success.

Soap Box Derby
As per tradition, we will run our annual Soap Box Derby on our last school day (Friday, December 18th).
Preps, Juniors and Middles will compete in the soap box derby, creating a cardboard vehicle at home that fits two people. In pairs, students will complete the soap box derby track, jumping and weaving through and over different obstacles and swapping spots halfway. If using two boxes, they must be directly attached (not string).
Seniors will compete in the Billy Cart Race, creating a billy cart with wheels that can be pushed (not automatically) through the Billy Cart Track. Students must wear helmets.
This is an optional event for students to participate in for students. Sports captains will go around each class and ask who participates in week 8.
For each cohort, Preps, Juniors, Middles, and Seniors, there will be a girls' category and a mixed category. The winners will receive a medal, and all others will receive a participation certificate.
Families are encouraged to come along and spectate on the day, as we finish off a big 2026 with lots of fun and laughter.
If you have any questions, ask the classroom teacher or email jarrod.butcher@education.vic.gov.au
