Welcome to 2025!

Welcome to all of our students, staff and families to the 2025 school year.

I would like to take this opportunity to welcome all of our new and returning families to the school. The first week has been really settled across the school with our students beginning to learn routines and structures in their new classes. It has been wonderful to see happy and focused students in classrooms and establishing early relationships that for a successful year ahead.
