Principal's Post

Dear Families,

The school disco last Thursday night had our Reynolds Community centre rocking like an old fashioned night club. The smooth and not so smooth moves were everywhere to be seen.

Bop Till You Drop Entertainment provided a super fun DJ playing great music with non-stop dancing, singing and musical games! The Photo Booth was very popular and the disco pack with snacks and a themed surprise were enjoyed by the young groovers and boppers too.

Thanks to the many parent volunteers who helped prior to, on and after the event. A special thanks to the organising disco team champions of Year three parents: Jo, Kohar, Emily, Kylie, Fina & Chandika. The event made a profit of over $2,200!

Father's Day Breakfast

Our Father’s Day Breakfast is this Friday morning. It’s a wonderful way to start the day together and celebrate the special role our dads, grandads or special person play in our community.

The Year 1 event team are seeking volunteers to help on the day. Volunteers are needed in order to make this event a success. If you can help, please sign up here: https://volunteersignup.org/4FKQP

We look forward to seeing you there!

Fathers Day stall

On Friday there will be a Father's day stall held at school. All gifts will be $5 so children are welcome to bring cash with them on Friday to spend at the stall on their dad or special person.

Concert Production Recorded Performance

Copies for the concert can still be ordered until 5pm this afternoon, via this link

Congratulations Year Five/Six Basketballers

Congratulations to our Grade 5 & 6 Basketball Teams.

A huge well done to all our Grade 5 and 6 students who represented our school at the District Basketball last Friday. Everyone showed great teamwork, effort, and sportsmanship throughout the day. Lots of fun was had, and we are very proud of the way you all participated and supported one another.

A special congratulations to our All Stars Boys team, who won the final in overtime, and our All Stars Girls team, who were runners up. Both teams will now go through to the next stage – a fantastic achievement!
