Principal's News

Dear Parents and Carers,

Last Thursday evening our school hosted next year’s Foundation students and their families at a BBQ tea and Information evening. The night was a great success and I am very grateful to these families who were able to come along and to our staff who prepared their ‘specialty salad’, cooked barbecues, set up, cleaned up and enjoyed meeting our new students and their families. Our new Principal, Mr Dwyer and his daughter, Mae joined us at the BBQ which meant Karl met quite a few parents and children in quite convivial circumstances while Mae was shown about by two older sisters, Millie and Charlotte who will be in Grade 6 with Mae next year. Thank you to everyone for making Karl feel so welcome.

GRADUATION At the other end of the school journey our Grade 6 class is preparing to Graduate from primary school and continue their educational journeys in secondary school in 2025.

Parents and carers should please note that the Graduation Ceremony will be held at 6:00pm-6:30pm on Thursday, December 12th at the Jubilee Centre at Trinity College.

TRANSITION DAY Our teachers work very hard helping to put together our class groups for the following year. The children are all surveyed about who they would like to be in a class with and we ensure that every student is with at least one of their first 3 choices, while for other students a break from one another can be good for both parties as well.

Our students will once again all have the chance to spend time with their class for next year. We will be doing this on Tuesday, December 10th. On this day our 2025 Foundation students will join us and our current Year 6 students will spend the day in their chosen secondary school.

SOME EARLY NOTICE The last day for our students this year will be Wednesday December 18th, exiting school at 3:15pm.

School will resume for students on Wednesday January 29th, 2025.

Please note, Wednesday the 29th will be the first day for our new Foundation students as well. Foundation students will attend school until 1:00pm for this first week and a half.
