Year 3/4 Students Explore Local Government at Mitchell Shire Council

Last term, our Year 3/4 students set off on an exciting learning adventure as they travelled by train to visit the Mitchell Shire Council. The journey itself was a highlight for many — for some students, it was their very first time travelling by train, adding an extra layer of excitement to the day.

Upon arrival at the Council offices, students were welcomed by staff who guided them through an informative session about how local government works. They learned about the important roles councillors play in making decisions that shape our community, from maintaining parks and playgrounds to planning new facilities and supporting local events.

Students were given the opportunity to step inside the Council Chambers, where real decisions are made. Sitting in the councillors’ seats sparked plenty of curiosity and thoughtful questions about leadership, responsibility, and how communities work together. Many students were surprised to discover just how many services the Council provides and how much planning goes into keeping our towns running smoothly.

We are proud of how respectfully and enthusiastically our students represented our school throughout the day. A big thank‑you to the Mitchell Shire Council for hosting us.

ANZAC Day

On Friday 24 April, Year 6 students Chase, Ella, Angus and Murray participated in the wreath laying during our ANZAC ceremony. These students were chosen for this job because of their responsible, respectful, and mature attitude. Well done to our Year 5/6 cohort for showing the ANZAC's the respect they deserve.

Mykho's ability to lead by example and contribute in key moments has been a highlight throughout the year.
