Our Grade 6 students recently celebrated their inaugural Big Day Out with an unforgettable adventure at iFLY! The day was filled with excitement as students experienced the thrill of indoor skydiving and shared many laughs along the way.

We are incredibly proud of our students, who embodied our school values by showing care and support for their peers throughout the day. Whether cheering each other on or offering encouragement, their teamwork and positivity truly shone.

It was a spectacularly fun experience and a fantastic way to celebrate the growth and achievements of our Grade 6 cohort. Well done to all! The next step is graduation, which is on Tuesday, the 17th!

Announcing Our 2025 School Leaders!

After an exciting campaign filled with creative fliers and inspiring speeches, our students have cast their votes for the 2025 School Leaders. We are incredibly proud of all the candidates who participated and demonstrated leadership, courage, and dedication throughout the process.

Without further ado, we are thrilled to announce our 2025 School Leaders: Charlie, Florence, Amelia, and Abigail!

Congratulations to these outstanding students! We look forward to seeing them shine in their leadership role next year.

Interviews are still underway for all other leadership positions. We will share the full list of leadership roles at our final assembly. Stay tuned!

Thank you to everyone who supported the election process and encouraged our future leaders.
