It's amazing to see everyone again for term 4, our last term for 2026. It's very exciting that as a school we have reached our fundraising goal of $20,000! I'm sure everyone else is just as excited as I am to see Mr Ryan get slimed. Our term has gotten off to a great start with lots of learning and fun activities such as the dance program. Omar and Tyrone taught each grade their own special dance. For grade 6 our song was 'Pop' by NSYNC. Everyone also learnt a whole school dance to 'Walk the Dinosaur' and did a fantastic job at the dance concert! I have loved the start of term 4 and am so excited for what is still to come!

Wow! Term 4 has started off with a bang! The dance program was definitely the highlight for me. Practising our Grade 6 graduation dance every day for two weeks with Tyrone was a very memorable experience. I also enjoyed watching the other grades perform their amazing dances during the dance showcase. On the 15th of October, the DPS Mixed Softball team played against Warrandyte Primary School. I am proud to be a member of that team, even though we unfortunately lost 18–10. Although there is less than a term of school left this year, I am still very excited for all the upcoming events. Enjoy the last few activities of 2026, DPS!

This term, we have had many enjoyable and exciting events, such as our DPS fundraiser!

We have raised over $20,000! With this amazing result, Doncaster Primary School will be rewarded with a colour run, where students will dress in white or light-coloured clothes and run around the school, completing an obstacle course while colourful powder splashes everywhere! Also, since we reached our fundraising goal, Mr Ryan will be slimed! We can't wait to find out who will get to slime him! Along the way, DPS students have been earning prizes for reaching different fundraising goals. These have included icy poles, lucky dips, free dress days and even a human sundae challenge, where a student gets to cover a teacher in ice cream and toppings like sprinkles! This fundraiser has been so much fun, and I'm excited to see what's next!

The past three weeks have been full of exciting events, and we are only at the beginning of the term! One of the highlights has been the dance program, where we spent the first two weeks of term learning our dances. Thanks to Tyrone, Doncaster Primary students were able to perform in front of so many parents at the dance concert. He taught us each step, and for Year 6, he helped us learn our graduation dance. The return to school has been busy, but students have settled back into their routines quickly. Division Athletics was held on the 8th of October during the first week of term. We would like to congratulate everyone who participated and gave it their all. A couple of students even made it through to Regionals! Our school performed well and showed determination, pride and success. Our next major event is the Monty the Monster Colour Fun Run on October 26th. We have achieved our fundraising goal of $20,000 for the school, and on the same day as the colour run, Mr Ryan will get slimed! We are looking forward to all the exciting events still to come this year. Let's try our best and finish the year with positivity!
