Principal's Report

Dear families,
What a wonderful night the concert was! We were all so proud of our students who performed with such confidence in front of approximately 400 people. Congratulations to Filippa and the staff for all their efforts, their hard work certainly shone out. Thanks to Fleur Ferguson for providing us access to photos from the night.
FUN SPORTS DAY
Our Sports Leadership team has planned some activities for tomorrow. Multiage groups will rotate through six activities. We were going to have them in the afternoon, but because of the predicted hot weather, we will have the activities in the morning and then finish at lunchtime, with our BBQ lunch and Zooper Doopers.
COMMUNICATION GROUP
Our Communication Leadership Group has been working on purchasing three new flag poles for the school. A special thank you to the Toolamba Fishing Club who have kindly donated $1,000 toward the project.
P & F DONATION
Parents and Friends have generously donated $5,000 toward some new play equipment which will be installed in early January. The equipment will consist of a monkey bar and a swing.
MTB Championships
Jake J and Alex C raced in the state downhill MTB championships last weekend, in wet and windy conditions. Both boys competed as bottom age racers in the u13s category. Jake placed 15th and Alex placed 26th out of the top 33 riders in Victoria. Well done boys!
