Dear Parents,

Mrs White is currently unwell and has been unable to be at school.  During her absence, I will relieve as Principal and Mrs Lee as Deputy Principal.  

We are all sending Mrs White lots of get well wishes and hope it isn't long before she is back on her feet and back at school.

What a stunning morning we had last Friday, celebrating all our mums and significant people in our lives. Thank you for the wonderful work and effort our P&C put into organising the Mother's Day breakfast and stall. We truly appreciate their dedication to making these events a success.

Our cricket team played Milthorpe today in Round 3 of the PSSA Knockout. Mr Thackray has reported:

"The team batted first and scored 112 runs. Everyone contributed, and 112 was a very competitive total. Milthorpe batted 2nd and scored 99 runs. We bowled exceptionally well with some very tight bowling. It was an outstanding effort by the whole team in the field, and we move on to round 4 against Orange Public School."

Congratulations on a fantastic game, and thank you, Mr Thackray, for coaching the team.

Term 1 Attendance Data

Our Term 1 attendance data shows that although we are tracking above the State and our Network, our attendance rate is 2% lower than the same time last year.   

This term, we will be working to improve both our attendance and unexplained attendance rates.

We appreciate parents explaining absences quickly, which can be done easily through the parent portal app.  Just a reminder, students who are away for more than two days will require a medical certificate.

If any parent has concerns regarding any aspect of school life, please do not hesitate to contact me.
