Transition 2024 Preps
The 2024 Preps began their transition session this week. All were excited to meet new friends, the Prep teachers and see what’s inside the classroom. The next session will be on Tuesday 28th November, 9:15-10:15am. Parents and families are welcome to stay for a coffee in the Hall.
This is a great opportunity for new parents to ask questions of current families and get to know others.
