Principal Report

School Camp 

Last week, our Year 3 - 6 students stayed at Golden Valleys Adventure Camp in Flinders. What a wonderful experience! The students were fully engaged in the activities and were full of praise of the staff, facilities and especially, the food. 

Our student's behaviour was exemplary, with camp staff consistently commenting on how well-mannered and supportive everyone was. 

A big thank you to our dedicated staff who went above and beyond to make this camp a big success.

Workforce Planning

Today we will conclude our final round of teacher recruitment for 2025. In the coming weeks, we will be finalising our staffing profile and placing students in their classes for next year. These announcements will be made to students on Tuesday 10th December at 'Up Day'.

School Budget

If any parents have budget submissions for consideration in next year’s budget, please ensure they are submitted to the office by Friday 8th November.

Curriculum Day Reminder

A quick reminder that Monday 4th November (the day before Melbourne Cup) is a student free day. TeamKids will be providing a full-day program for those families requiring supervision for their children. Please contact TK directly if you require their services.

Our final Curriculum Day for 2024 will be on Friday 13th December.

School Council

Our final School Council Meeting will be held on Tuesday 26th November. 

This meeting will be held onsite.

Upcoming Working Bee

We are planning another working bee on Friday 29th November from 2:30pm to 5pm. 

Many hands make light work so anyone who is available to assist on the afternoon, would be greatly appreciated!
