Disco

Yesterday’s school disco was a blast from the past, with students dressing up as if they were in their 50s! The creativity and effort put into the costumes were truly impressive, and it was heart-warming to see everyone having such an amazing time. The kids were not only enthusiastic but also very well-behaved, making the day enjoyable for all. We extend our sincere thanks to our wonderful P&C for organizing this fantastic event and to PCYC for hosting and supplying the lively music that kept everyone dancing all night. It was a memorable day of fun and community spirit!

We are thrilled to announce that our school surf team achieved an impressive second place in the yesterday’s inter-school surfing competition, coming in just behind Currumbin SS. Our talented students also competed fiercely against Coolangatta SS and Burleigh Heads SS, showcasing their exceptional surfing skills and sportsmanship. A huge thank you goes out to Mr. Cocks and Mr. Locke for organizing such a fantastic event. We also want to express our thanks to the parents who made it to the beach to support our students. Congratulations to all our students for their outstanding performance in the waves!
