100 Days of Foundation

On Monday 4th August, our Foundation students celebrated a very special milestone – 100 days of School!  On this special day they participated in many different and fun learning activities that related to the number 100.  

Our Foundation students came dressed up as if they were 100 years old.  It was wonderful to see some grey hair, walking sticks and glasses. They all looked absolutely fantastic!  It was such a great day acknowledging how far our students have come in their first year of primary school.   Please see our 100 Days of Foundation page for photos!

Big Goose Farm - Foundation Excursion

Clyde's Great Spaghetti Pig Out!

A Year 5/6 Literacy Production

Our Year 5 and 6 students have undertaken an extensive study of one of Australia's most beloved children's authors, Paul Jennings. 

On Thursday 11th September (6pm - 7pm), our students will present to their families, an adaption of his famous story “The Spaghetti Pig Out”, as they bring the story to life with song and dance. We hope their presentation will inspire you to discover—or rediscover—the magic of Paul Jennings' storytelling. 

 

This event will replace previous year's school productions.

 

Students in Foundation to Year 6 will be able to view a matinee performance of this (information to come).
