Stars of the Week

Production

A huge congratulations to our amazing Year 6 students for their outstanding efforts in this year’s production of Madagascar Jr.!

From the very first rehearsals through to the final performance, our students have shown incredible dedication, creativity, and teamwork.

The energy and enthusiasm on performance night was truly infectious – the laughter, smiles and applause from the audience said it all! We are so proud of the way our Year 6s embraced this opportunity, supported each other, and shone on stage.

A big thank you also goes to the staff and families who helped make the production possible – your encouragement and support mean so much.

Well done, Year 6 – you should all be very proud of yourselves!

Book Week

What a wonderful celebration we had for Book Week! Our students came dressed as their favourite book characters, filling the school with colour, creativity, and excitement. From wizards and superheroes to animals and adventurers, the effort put into costumes was amazing to see.

A huge thank you to our families for supporting students with costumes and encouraging a love of reading at home. Book Week was a fantastic reminder that books open the door to imagination, learning, and endless possibilities.
