2025 Wrap up

As we approach the end of another school year, we would like to express our heartfelt gratitude for your continued support and partnership. Together, we have navigated challenges, celebrated successes, and witnessed the remarkable growth of our students.

Our 65th Anniversary celebration was a wonderful reminder of the strength of our community, how we come together to honour our achievements and celebrate our rich legacy of learning.

Our students have excelled in academics, sports, and the arts, and our dedicated teachers have gone above and beyond to provide high-quality education.

We want to extend a special thank you to our dedicated staff for their tireless efforts. Your passion and commitment to our students have made a significant impact on their lives.

As we look ahead to the new year, we are excited about the opportunities that lie ahead.

Wishing you all a safe and happy holidays.

Brooke Alana and Emily completed their final-year teaching placements at LNPS, and we are thrilled to have them return as part of our staff. We look forward to the energy, knowledge, and enthusiasm each of these new team members will bring to our school community.

Instrumental Music 2026

Social media age restrictions

From 10 December 2025, many social media platforms won’t be allowed to let Australians under 16 create or have an account. The eSafety Commissioner has important information on this page to help families understand why, and how they can help under-16 through the change.

Schools are not responsible for enforcing these changes and there are no penalties for children, parents or carers. The responsibility sits entirely with the social media platforms.
