Assistant Principal's Report
Leasyl Richards - Curriculum
Each term a number of our Year 5 and 6 students are chosen to participate in the Victorian High Ability Program. These students are chosen by the Department of Education based on their results which include their marks in their semester reports, NAPLAN, and PAT tests.
Ally C, our 2024 School Captain, participated in the VHAP English program in Term 4 last year. Her work has been selected from all of the VHAP students around Victoria as an exceptional piece of work.
Congratulations Ally and please enjoy her poem;
I AM A TREE
I am a tree, standing tall and proud,
my thick branches touching the clouds.
My leaves, a symphony of rustling greens,
dancing in the breeze, whispering unseen.
My roots, like veins, entwined and strong,
nourishing my being, where I belong.
Throughout the seasons, I stand steadfast and true,
a silent witness, watching the world anew.
Spring's gentle touch awakens life anew,
blossoms unfold, a vibrant hue.
Summer's warmth bathes me in golden light,
a symphony of colours, a dazzling sight.
Autumn paints me in fiery hues,
leaves ablaze, farewell summer's muse.
Winter's slumber blankets me in white,
a silent slumber, waiting for the light.
Through the passage of time, I will stand tall and grand,
a guardian of the forest, in this verdant land.
