Preps

After nearly 200 days of schooling we are nearly at the end of the first year of school. It has been a year full of challenges, hard work but also plenty of smiles, laughs and good times.

As you are reading this newsletter we will be busy preparing for the end of year concert. Both Prep classes have worked so hard to learn their dance moves and we are sure that you will be impressed by the performance that they put on tonight.

We wanted to finish this newsletter piece with a couple of thank you’s. Firstly, to all of the parents who went above and beyond this year to help with their child’s schooling we feel largely in your debt for all the work you did. The kids have had an amazing year and you have played a huge part in that. We also wanted to thank you for all the support you give us, whether this be helping with gardening or cooking, doing reading every night or helping on special school events you are always there to help us and the kids. No request we make is ever too much to ask. 

Thank you to the unsung heroes of the Prep year and that is the wonderful ES staff we have in the rooms. At times throughout the year Kate, Liv and Jack have helped the kids and teachers in the room. The ES play such an enormous role in a child’s education and at times go unrecognised.  We want to publicly recognise their contribution to 2025. 

Finally, we want to thank the 33 Preps that have made this year so amazing. They make coming to work every day such a joy and we both feel so lucky to have taught them this year. They loved being challenged with their work and also love having a smile and a laugh together.  It has been amazing to look back over the work that they have done this year and their amazing individual growth. 

We would like to wish everyone a safe and happy holiday period.

Andrew and Jenna
