Anzac Day - Mia and Lara 

On April 25th, we will commemorate Anzac Day. The School Captains will be attending the Dawn Service at Pearcedale to show our respect on behalf of the Cranbourne South Primary School community. At the Dawn Service, we will listen to community leaders speak, participate in the minute silence and we will lay a wreath as representatives of our School. If you have never attended a Dawn Service before, it is a lovely experience and a great opportunity to connect with your community, and to give thanks to those who have fought for our country. 

If you are interested, the Dawn Service will be at Pearcedale Public Hall, 45 Pearcedale Road. It will begin at 6:00am and all families are welcome to join us to reflect. 

Student Leadership Conference 

On Wednesday, 29th March - The CSPS School and Vice Captains (Mia, Lara, Giselle & Arizona) attended a leadership conference. They heard from special guest speakers and gained invaluable skills building upon their leadership at CSPS. 

Colour run and Cross country

You all know that the colour run was a couple of Fridays ago! I am so proud of everyone for participating and trying their best. It was such a fun day! I want to thank all the staff, parents and students who helped. Really, we couldn’t have done it without you.

I heard all of you encouraging each other and cheering each other on. 

All the new foundation students did magnificently for their first colour run.

We also had the cross country on the 24th of February. You all did incredibly. It doesn’t matter if you didn’t win, it just matters if you had fun. I also heard everyone cheering each other on. I love how you support each other. 

Congratulations to all the students who made it into district. That’s great if you did but even if you didn’t it doesn’t matter because like I said it just matters if you have fun! Again, all the foundation students did absolutely amazing for their first cross country. I am so proud of every single one of you. Even if you didn’t participate it’s ok. As long as you were cheering on your classmates. I also wanted to thank all the parents, staff and students who helped out in the cross country. Your support made the day possible.
