Farewell to Hayley
Our wonderful Bu Whelan is leaving us to try her luck away from teaching. Hayley's last official day will be Friday November 28th ( her last day with the students being Thursday November 27th).
Hayley has been our LOTE Indonesian Teacher for 5 years and has planned and taught lessons, organised special Indonesian events and days. She has made learning the the Indonesian Language and about the culture lots of fun.
This year Hayley joined us four days a week as she took over the part-time teaching role in 5/6A when Mrs Hon left. Hayley has also led our Student Action Team this year.
We will miss you Bu Whelan and we have some difficult shoes to fill, but we wish you all the very best for your next adventure.

Report Writing Day
Friday November 28th is a pupil free day. On this day staff will be finalising assessments and reports. Students do not attend school on this day.
Boys To The Bush Program
Our ten participants had their final session yesterday. The boys have had an absolutely amazing time visiting local places of interest, learning about respect, engagement and community and trying some new activities that require perseverance and teamwork. We are so fortunate to have been given this opportunity through generous donations from the Moama Bowling Club and the Lockington Bamawm FNC.
School Council
Our final School Council Meeting for 2025 will be held on Tuesday November 25th at 6pm on site.
That is all for this week, Lisa Duffy.
