ENPS School News
Introducing David Foley and Tandy Johnson
Principal News - Term 3 Week 10
Yesterday we welcomed our 2025 Foundation students for their first transition day. It was wonderful to see so many new faces entering the rooms ready to have their first taste of ‘real school’. Many of our 2025 students are siblings of current students and it is lovely to have additional family members joining us. We are equally excited to have new students and their families joining our ENPS community. Parents who were able to stay enjoyed a cuppa and an opportunity to chat whilst the students enjoyed literacy and numeracy learning and time exploring the playground. We look forward to further transition sessions in term 4.
As we reflect on another school term that is almost over, there are so many things to be grateful for. We have had a host of terrific events including two parades, a special lunch, awesome excursions, working bees, and sporting triumphs!
A friendly reminder that Friday is an early finish with assembly commencing at 2:10pm and students being dismissed at 2:30 from the assembly court.
I wish all of our staff and families a lovely break and I hope that you all have an opportunity to spend some relaxing time with family and friends. For those travelling I wish you safe travels and for those having a home stay holiday, I wish you plenty of R& R.
I look forward to seeing you all back in Term 4!
