Senior Hoop Time

On Wednesday 3rd August our senior girls basketball team competed at the District Hoop Time event. The girls won all four round robin games. They then faced off against Cranbourne East in the grand final. They gave it their all but unfortunately went down.

A big thanks to all the parents who transported the team and acted as great cheer leaders.

Special thanks to Myra Wood for training the team in the lead up and helping coach on the day.  

Environmental Studies

The Year 3 and 4's have been busy baking in the kitchen, so far we have made Choc-Chip Cookies and Lemonade Scones. 

Nature Play

We have been continuing our investigations into force and motion out in the playground. Please remember to pack a rain jacket and gumboots for Nature Play as we are always outside.

CONCERT NIGHT!!!!!

Last week we put on a spectacular show at the Frankston Arts Centre for families. The feedback from our community has been so heart-warming and positive. Watching those kids have fun on stage with their class mates was so rewarding. 

Thank you...

I had the opportunity to say a speech at the end of the show, but didn't have anything prepared, so I thought doing the splits was a way easier option!

This should have been my speech..
