We would like to acknowledge and honour the Wurundjeri Woi-Wurrung people of the Kulin Nation as the traditional custodians of the land on which our school stands. We pay our respects to all First Nations elders, past present, and emerging.

Thank you so much to everyone who donated baked goods or produce, to those who stood behind the tables to serve and to those able to come along to our Spring Family Day afternoon - Spring was certainly in the air!

Grade 6 Disco

Some of our spectacular grade 6 parents and carers are organising a special disco for our graduating class. There will be a consultation process with the kids at lunch time tomorrow (Tuesday) at Sprout. We will also have a fundraising bake sale this Friday - all proceeds going towards resources for the disco.

SunSmart (Hats)

Today was our first day enforcing SunSmart rules at school - we had quite a few students who had forgotten their SunSmart hats and were therefore asked to play in the shaded undercover area.

Hats are available to purchase from the office for $15.

Tips for surviving SunSmart Season:

Please write your child’s name on their hat so it can be returned if lost. Avoid naming the label/tag as they can fall off.
Decorate your school hat. Our school hats are well priced, safe and convenient! But also common - if your child wears a school hat, we recommend to decorate it so it’s easily identified even when someone is wearing it.
If you buy a hat from somewhere else, we strongly recommend you look for hats with quick release attachments on the chin strap. Playing tag or on monkey bars can become dangerous if a chin strap gets caught; quick release attachments significantly reduce the chance of choking or neck injuries.

Parent & Caregiver Opinion Survey

Thank you to everyone who completed this survey last week - our response rate almost doubled to 42 responses! The survey remains open until this Friday 8 September 2023.

The survey is optional but we encourage all families to participate so we can consider as many different family experiences as possible. The survey is completely anonymous,will be conducted online and only takes 20 minutes to complete.

Unfortunately we are not allowed to publish the link in our public newsletter. To access the survey, families received a Sentral message a few weeks ago including the school’s PIN and instructions. If you can’t find the message, please contact the school office so they can resend the information to you.
