Principal's message

Hi Families,

We have had a jam packed few weeks from excursions, incursions to cross country and ANZAC Day. The busyness continues this term with with 6 lucky Yr5/6 students attending Somers Camp next week, then we have the Anglesea Camp for Yr3-6 students in just a few more weeks.

 

Just a reminder that we have school photos this coming Monday.

 

As Mother’s Day approaches this weekend, we want to express our deepest gratitude to all the incredible mothers, grandmas, aunties, sisters, women and special people in our school community. Your unwavering dedication, love, and sacrifices do not go unnoticed. Your presence and influence enrich our students' lives every day. From waking up early to prepare breakfast to volunteering your time in the classroom, your contributions shape the educational journey of our students and strengthen the bonds within our community. Thank you for your endless love, support, and guidance. Happy Mother’s Day!

Last fortnight, on Tuesday 23rd, students from grades 3-6 were given white crosses that had the names of young local Alvie men who enlisted for service in World War 1. The students placed the crosses next to the memorials at the entrance to our Avenue Of Honour.

On Wednesday all students and staff gathered at the memorial site to commemorate ANZAC Day. Students Chloe, Eleanor and Kayden read ‘In Flanders Fields’ and Milla read ‘The Ode’. 

Following on from our morning service, lessons continued with the ANZAC Day theme through activity worksheets, reading of ANZAC Day related books and watching a short documentary  explaining who the ANZAC soldiers were and their significance in World War 1.
