What's Happening In Primary
News and Information from Primary
We have enjoyed a wonderful start to Term 4, with students settling quickly back into their rhythms and routines. It has been encouraging to see classrooms filled with enthusiasm, focus and a desire to learn as we begin the final term of the year. The positive way our students have returned has created a great atmosphere across the school and sets the tone for an exciting and productive term ahead.
There is so much to look forward to throughout Term 4, and each week we will be sharing insights into the many exciting learning experiences, events and achievements happening across our school. At present, our Year 6 students are in Canberra, enjoying all that our nation's capital has to offer as part of their camp experience. From exploring significant landmarks to creating unforgettable memories together, it is a wonderful opportunity for learning and growth. Below are some photos from their first day as we celebrate this special experience with our school community.




















Every year, our Year 5 students are given the special opportunity to purchase a Year 6 Graduate Hoodie to celebrate their final year of primary school.
The navy hoodies look fantastic and will feature the same design as the one pictured below. They can be worn by students throughout the school year as part of their regular school uniform.
Please note: Students will still require a school jumper, or jacket, for official school events and special occasions.
Hoodies are $63 each and orders must be received by Wednesday 11th November.
The graduate hoodies will be presented to students at our final assembly on Tuesday 8th December, making it a memorable way to mark the beginning of their Year 6 journey.

(A size chart is included below to help with sizing, and some samples are available to try on at the Central Office.)




Everyone loves a maths equation: The sun is out + UV is increasing = It's time for hats!
We have been enjoying some amazing weather recently, and with warmer days arriving and UV levels continuing to rise, it is now time for hats to become a daily part of the school routine.
For the remainder of the year, we require students to wear their school hat whenever they are outside at play. This includes recess, lunch, PE lessons, sport, and any other outdoor activities. To help students be ready for the day, we ask families to please ensure a school hat is packed in their child's bag each morning.
Thank you for your support as we work together to keep our students safe while they enjoy time outdoors.
