Year 9 Hopetoun Camp

We have enjoyed an actioned packed Year 9 Hopetoun Camp this week. Full credit must go to Miss Piccoli and Miss Van De Wetering for organising yet another  engaging camp.    I was privileged to attend as camp cook. We have had several canoeing sessions, visited Snow Drift sand dunes, Lake Tyrell and made many more memories.  The students have displayed exceptional behaviour  with a 'have a go' attitude shown by everyone. The tired campers should be back at school by 2:30 pm today. 

School Fete - Easter Extravaganza

We have commenced planning for the annual Easter School Fete.

The fete will be held on the last day of Term 1, Friday 4th April, commencing at 10am and will conclude at 2pm. This will be followed by presentations before students are finally dismissed early at 2.30pm.   

We are asking for donations, stall holders and volunteers. Our Parents & Friends Association has already started with the annual Mega Easter Raffle.  All friends, family and community members are most welcome to attend.   

Due to the building works we will be holding the fete in the front garden area of the school.  The class who donates the most Easter eggs will receive a free lunch and activity.

 

Easter Egg Count so far:  104           Record: 270 (2024).      Winning Class so far: Year 11

 

*More School fete information will be distributed shortly
