Hello my name is Lucian and I am one of your 2021 School Captains, this is some inside information about myself and my life out of school . One of my main passions is sport.

I have a sister Emily and a brother called Alexander and they are both older then me, I live with my Mum and Dad who both live in Ocean Grove.

Holly (2021 School Captain)

Hi, My name is Holly and I am one of the Ocean Grove Primary Schools 2021 School Captains. I am in Lok-Lok Eagles and my school house colour is green. I do nippers and my favourite colour is yellow. I enjoy sport and art. Footy is one of the main sports i play, but because of COVID i only got to play 3 games. I am in 6BC with a lot of my close friends such as Maddy, Heidi, Lucy and many more. They are so kind to me and i am very grateful they are in my life. I am obsessed with all animals and in year five i made a slam poem on animal rights and i am hoping to one day make a change. Those are some things i am interested in.

Mia Reece (Teacher 6MR)

I am so excited to be back for another year at OGPS and I feel very lucky to be apart of this awesome community. I have been a teacher for five years and first started teaching in my hometown of Maryborough. I now live in Ocean Grove with my husband and two Golden Retrievers Lenny and Dotti who although like to dig holes in our garden are treated like the king and queen!

I love spending time with my family and friends, reading, keeping active, walking my dogs, going to the beach and trying new things. I am hoping this year I will learn to surf so if you see me at the beach I will need all the help I can get! I’m looking forward to a great year with you all.
