Senior Gala Day #1
Well done to the senior students who participated in their first summer sports gala day for the year, particularly the year 5’s being their first interschool sport experience. It was a hot one but students showed great resilience, persistence, teamwork, and had a great time and with some impressive results. We look forward to the second round next Tuesday.
National Ride2School Day:
National Ride2School Day is on Friday 21st March, 2025. National Ride2School Day is Australia’s biggest celebration of active travel and one of the best days on the school calendar. Let’s discover the joy of riding and kick-start healthy habits for the future. Students can ride, scoot, skate or walk to school. Remember to wear a helmet if riding. Students in Prep – Year 3 must be accompanied by an adult. You can park and leave your bike or scooter at school for the day in the following areas:
From 8:30am

Lost Property
Welcome to the 2025 school year.
We would like to ask all families to check that all school uniforms, hats, drink bottles, lunch containers, sports items etc are clearly labelled with your child’s SURNAME and first name/initial. This includes all handed down clothing that needs updated names.
We check the lost property cupboard every week and return any items clearly labelled to the classrooms.
The year has started with a lot of lost property in the cupboard that we have been unable to return to its owner.
Anything named has already been sorted and returned however if anyone is still missing school uniform, hats, drink bottles, lunch boxes and an assortment of casual clothing, please check lost property for it.
The lost property cupboard is located at the end of the corridor near the main office or accessed via the corridor between the junior and senior school.
Thank you
Fiona & Meagan
