A special thank you goes out to our wonderful guest speaker Mr Greg Owens, to the students who shared their research and laid their wreaths and to Anne-Marie for organising such a beautiful ceremony.

Kindy visits to school

Grange Primary School invited our local Kindergarten to come and visit! Over 100 kindy students from two local Kindergartens visited over 4 days to see what school is all about. We looked at the canteen, the oval, the hall, a Performing Arts lesson, had a play on the playground and activity time inside a classroom. Our current Foundation students left a special letter for each kindy student, hidden in our outdoor play area, for them to take home. We hope these visits helped to make the kindy students feel confident and excited to start school, wherever they may be going next year!
