What's Happening In Primary

PeaceWiseKids - A New Program to Primary

At the beginning of 2025, the entire Primary DCS Staff Team participated in a full day of intensive training to introduce a new program called PeaceWise. Over the next few weeks, our Primary Team will launch the PeaceWiseKids program, and we are very excited about the positive impact it will bring.

PeaceWiseKids is a Christian program that will be implemented across all year levels in Primary at DCS. This program offers a structured curriculum designed to equip students with tools and strategies for handling challenging relationships and conflicts in healthy, constructive, and life-changing ways.

The program aims to empower children to take more responsibility for their own relationships, build resilience, and gain essential life skills that will benefit them from childhood through adulthood. There are four course levels, each teaching biblical skills and principles using age-appropriate language and examples.

More information about PeaceWiseKids will be communicated through Schoolbox to families, facilitating ongoing conversations at home.

Meet Our Team: Prep

Mrs Prue McCulloch

My favourite music group is Sons of Sunday and God Did and I Looked Up are my favourites songs.

My family is my greatest accomplishment.

My favourite places in Tasmania are Turners Beach and Port Sorell.

If I could choose a superpower it would be Telekinesis so I can move objects with my mind.

If I could be friends with someone in the Old Testament it would be Esther as I admire her humility, faithfulness, wisdom and courage.

I always knew I wanted to be a teacher and was lucky to have some great role models throughout my schooling.

A fun fact about me is that I am learning to play the harmonica!

Mrs Hannah Legg

My favourite song is Never Gets Old  by Red Rocks Worship.

My greatest accomplishment is becoming a mum to my two beautiful boys, Micah and Levi.

My favourite place is Penguin.

If I could choose a superpower would be time travel so I could spend one more day with my grandparents.

If I could be friends with someone in the Old Testament it would be Ruth because she sets a beautiful example of loyalty and faithfulness.

I knew I wanted to be a teacher when I was five years old!

A fun fact about me -I won a Guy Sebastian hair competition when I was in Year 5!

Mrs Hannah Brown

I grew up on country music, which I still love but my hubby does not! I currently listen to a lot of Brandon Lake, Elevation Worship and any Christian artist really.

My greatest accomplishment is my 3 beautiful children who I call my little miracles as they are all IVF babies.

I love all of the beautiful beaches in Tasmania, especially Boat Harbour, Binalong Bay and Sisters Beach.

I have never really thought about what superpower I would choose, but speed like Sonic would be really cool.

I would choose Esther as my Old Testament friend. I would like her bravery to rub off on me.

I had lots of childhood dream jobs that changed regularly, but a Mum, a pro-netballer, marine biologist and a chef were some of the ones I remember.

Mrs Cherise McLean

My favourite music artist for the past several years is Ziggy Alberts.

My favourite places in Tasmania are: Cataract Gorge, Cradle Mountain and Mount Amos overlooking Wineglass Bay.

I would like to be friends with Noah. He was so faithful, obedient and trusting to God. I would love to have been there to see before and after the flood, and the building of the ark.

When I was a child, I wanted to be a midwife and to be a mother to many children. My husband Luke and I have five children, so we are very blessed.

Worship Wednesday on pause...

With our school photos happening next week, Worship Wednesday will be on pause for a week. We look forward to worshipping with you again on Wednesday 2nd April.
