CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR PRINCIPAL'S STUDENT OF THE WEEK!

19/02/26 Addison; for the leadership qualities she has displayed throughout the start of 2024. She has confidently and seamlessly transitioned into a leader!

On Tuesday we held our first Alvie House Athletics in preparation for the Polwarth School Sports. A big congratulations to Dreeite (yellow) who was the winning team on the day, all students were commended on such a successful day

Yesterday we held our Polwarth Sports with around 1000 people on site. We want to extend our sincerest gratitude to all the families who came out to support our athletes on sports day. Your presence, enthusiasm, and encouragement made the event truly special.

It was heartwarming to see the sidelines filled with cheering faces and words of encouragement for our students. Your support not only uplifted our students but also created a sense of community and camaraderie that is invaluable to our school and what we pride our school on.

Whether you were cheering from the sidelines, volunteering your time, or simply being there to witness the excitement, your contribution did not go unnoticed. Thank you for being an integral part of making sports day a memorable and successful event.

To the many people who helped lead the way in the food and beverages area, we can't thank you enough. From the orderings, requesting donations to the preparation in the days leading to the work on the day, thank you. We are such a special community and so lucky to have the many families contributing in many ways. We managed to raise over $3000! An absolute success and we can't thank you enough.

A big congratulations to all our students who competed in this weeks events, especially our 3 Age Group Champions, Harry Clifford, Kayden Baker and Chloe Reimers. An absolutely outstanding effort!
