BOOKWEEK 2025

Just a reminder that Book Week is not far away now, and it is one of the biggest highlights of the term. This year’s theme, "Book an Adventure!", invites students to dive into exciting literary journeys and discover new worlds through reading. Book Week officially runs from Saturday, 16th August, to Saturday, 23rd August, with our much-anticipated Book Week Parade happening on the morning of Thursday, 21st August. This could be a fantastic school holiday project—start planning your costume now and stay tuned for more details!

The Scholastic Book Fair will also be open in the senior library throughout the week. Check out the flyer below for opening times before and after school. We hope to see you there!

BRICK PAVER FUNDRAISER

The old toilet block has been removed, and the new synthetic turf has been chosen, so we are preparing the site to put up our family pavers. This opportunity is now being offered for any families that are new to the school or missed the deadline last year. For just $50, your family can become part of our school's history. If you, a family member or a local business would like to order a paver, you can do so using the QR code below or by following this LINK. We hope you will support our school to fill the external gym wall with pavers; it is going to look amazing.
