Welcome

This week we have NAPLAN testing for our years 7 and 9, CFA on Thursday and our Year 12's are heading into Wodonga TAFE on Friday for the school experience day to learn about their available study options.  

Last week our swimmers headed to Waves Wodonga for the regional swimming carnival.  Well done to all who attended and you can see the photos from this event in the student news page.

Coming up in sport we also have the junior and intermediate sport days, the cross country on the last day of term 1 and athletics on the 1st student day of Term 2 (Wednesday 26th April).  School photos are on Friday 31st March, see our calendar page for any other important dates and check the compass calendar and compass events for all up-to-date calendar/event info.

In staffing we wish Hannah Little all the best on her maternity leave 💐 and we welcome our new maths/science teacher Shantelle Stimson.  We sat down today with Shantelle for a quick "grilling" 🏂 which you can read all about in the our staff page.  

This week our careers page has information on a gap year with the Australian Defence Forces, an opportunity for students to experience life in the Navy, Army or Air Force without needing to make a long-term commitment.

We have lots of lovely new reads in our library, read the book reviews in our library page.

Need some recipe inspo that doesn't break the bank? Check out the free event in the community page from La Trobe's Melanie Lionello (Nutritionist and Cookbook Author @frommylittlekitchen)

Lastly, I was hoping to have an update on the water situation here at school - but, apologies, that will have to be sent out at a later date.

Enjoy your week.  May the Easter Bunnies in the shops not bite 🐰 🍫 and happy reading!
