FIRST NATIONS NEWS

T3 2025

Last newsletter we shared about Ayden Martin and Katie O’Reilly from Carclew Performing Arts, who have been working with our Year 3–6 students, introducing them to a range of artistic styles and forms.

 

Here are some pictures.

First Nations Information

On the wall opposite Penney space is information updates for the First Nations Community. Please check it out.

 

Jharni will officially finish working at the school as of the 11th of September. Jharni would like to thank all the students and families and it has been a pleasure to work with all of them. We would like to wish her all the best in her new journey working with the Stars Foundation at Christies Beach High School.
