Congratulations to our 2024 Boambee Public School captains:

 

  • Attila Sullivan

A fantastic group of young leaders!

 

Well done to all of the students who applied for captaincy this year, there were 21 applicants who presented speeches to apply and they were all amazing. 

 

Kindy Go Day!

On Thursday this week 57 of our 2024 kindy students completed their first half day. Our Year 4 and 5 buddies did a wonderful job supporting our new students, as a result they were so confident, and they had a blast! 

 

A warm welcome to all of our new Boambee Public School families. Thank you to Emily Hollman for your fantastic organisation. This success is a result of a transition program that is recognised at a state level as a model of best practice. Many of these students are visiting us for the 7th time and by the time they start next year they will well and truly already be a part of the Boambee Public School team!

 

Boambee Public School Mountain Biking Program

Our Year 5 students had their first ride at the Cows With Guns mountain bike track on Friday for Stage 3 sport. Despite the weather we were able to get a ride in. A few exciting spills and lots of smiles! Thank you to Paul Humphrey at Toormina High School for the use of your bus and thanks to Mr Moore and Mr Pike for your mountain biking instruction. Looking forward to the next few weeks at Cows With Guns. 

 

Thanks also to Bob Wallis Cycles for your ongoing commitment to supporting Boambee Public School with service that goes above and beyond. Boambee Public School provides the best educational experiences in partnership with our community!

 

Toormina High School Leadership 

We had the pleasure of welcoming our High School partners at assembly last week. Toormina High School principal Paul Humphrey and science teacher Tas Alam joined us to thank the THS student leadership team. 

 

Year 12 THS Leaders have been integral in helping Science teacher Tasanee Alam present fun experiments to the Boambee Public School Year 4 transition students in science practical lessons held this term. 

 

Grandparent's Day 

What a pleasure it was to welcome our grandparents and family members at Boambee Public School on Friday last week. We are all so grateful to our grandparents for the love you give and they way you care. There was so much pride in the air on Friday - a joy to be a part of.
