In the final week of the term, we will be celebrating these achievements at our Student House Assembly, where we will highlight the hard work and successes of our students. A big thank you to our students, the staff that work hard to support them every day, and all the families; student success is a partnership, and we really appreciate it.

As we approach the term break, we want to wish all our families a safe and restful holiday. We hope you can recharge and spend quality time with your loved ones.

We look forward to seeing students return for a great term 2 on Tuesday 22nd April.
