Principal Report

Dear Parents and Friends,

Well done to Catalina who participated in the Lions Club Public Speaking Regionals level on Sunday. It was a tough field, and she represented herself and the school with pride. 

A huge shout out to all those who supported our recent Lantern Walk. It certainly was a team effort and wonderful to see around 130 people come along to support raising awareness for those in need. Thank you to Catherine and Maria for leading the organisation of this event. 

Kindergarten Visits 

As part of our transition processes our Year Five students have had several visits to the Kinder and Child Care this year. It has been wonderful to see how much joy that all get out of these visits. Great relationships with future students are already being formed. 

Book Week Parade 

There has been a lot of chatter and planning over the last couple of weeks in the lead up to this Friday’s parade. I can’t wait to see all this planning in action. All are welcome to join us for the parade at 9:00am.

Parent Teacher Interviews are scheduled for Tuesday 9th and Wednesday 10th September. This is an opportunity for you to discuss your child/ren’s progress and set learning goals for term four. Bookings will open next Monday via PAM.

Staffing Update 

Our Performing Arts Teacher, Jane Sartori will be finishing up with us at the end of term. Jane has brought a lot of energy and learning to our students through Performing Arts and she will be missed. We wish Jane all the best! 

A process is underway to replace this role for term four. 

Trivia Night 

Early next term we are aiming to have our annual Trivia Night. We are looking for a group of volunteers to organise this event, many hands make light work. 

Please reach out to myself or the office if you are interested in order that we can lock in a date and location. 

Legacy 

🏅 What is Legacy Australia? 

Legacy is a group of kind people who help families of Australian soldiers. Sometimes, when a parent who was a soldier gets very sick, hurt, or passes away, their family can feel very sad and need help. That’s where Legacy comes in. 

💙 What does Legacy do? 

Legacy helps in lots of ways: 

• They give support to children—like helping with school supplies, uniforms, or even fun camps and activities. 
• They help parents—by giving advice, helping with money problems, or just being there to talk to. 
• They make sure families don’t feel alone. Legacy has special volunteers called Legatees who visit and support families, sometimes for many years. 

🌟 Why is Legacy important? 

Legacy keeps a promise that started over 100 years ago: 

“To look after the families of those who served our country.” 

They make sure that even when someone is gone, their family is still cared for and remembered. 

There is a range of Legacy items available to purchase in the office for the next few weeks. Prices range from $1- $20.
