USPS School Leaders
Let's hear from our School Leaders:
Q: What have your experiences been during your 7 years at Upwey South Primary School?
Jack: There have been many great experiences that I have been apart of throughout my school years. Obviously not just being a school captain but also being a Wattle house captain last year and participating in interschool sports, like cross country, athletics, tennis, footy and Hoop Time. Last year I did VSSS choir and the year before that I did dance. Even though I have had all of these awesome experiences so far, I've still got many to come and I'm proud to keep on leading Upwey South Primary School in 2024.
Franklin: It has been great being at Upwey South. All the way from prep to now, I've had many great times and many great friends. Some of the best experiences have been; participating in events like Hoop Time, the school basketball team, athletics day, Robocup and VSSS dance for three years in a row. The 5/6 big day out was pretty good. It has been great over the time that I've been here. And I am proud to be leading our school this year!
Mila: I have had so many great times at Upwey South and made so many amazing friends. Out of all the great experiences I have had, getting School Captain and Performing Arts captain last year has been a highlight. Being Cinderella in the school productions is pretty cool, as well as representing the school in regionals for swimming. I am so excited for all the other great things that are going to come.
Eden: Eden's reflection will be included in our final Term One assembly
