🦖 PREP DINOSAUR CIRCUS

WHAT A SPECTACULAR SUCCESS! 🎪

What an absolutely fantastic performance by our Prep students! Our Prep Dinosaur Circus was a wonderful celebration of confidence, creativity, courage and plenty of laughter.

Our youngest students certainly stole the show, entertaining a delighted audience with their amazing costumes, hilarious acts and enthusiastic performances. It was wonderful to see every child having a go, stepping outside their comfort zone and performing with such confidence and excitement.

A massive thank you to our incredible staff who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to bring this wonderful event to life. From rehearsals and costumes to organising the many little details, your dedication, creativity and enthusiasm made the circus such a memorable experience for our students and families.

Thank you also to our parents, grandparents and community members who came along to support our budding performers. Your encouragement and applause made the occasion even more special.

Congratulations to our Prep superstars! You reminded us all that learning should be filled with fun, laughter, opportunity and unforgettable experiences.

Never a better time to be at Wedderburn College!

Remembrance Day Service

Today, Wedderburn College students and staff proudly participated in the Wedderburn community Remembrance Day service, joining local RSL members, families and community representatives to honour the brave men and women who have served and sacrificed for our country. It was a wonderful opportunity for our students to demonstrate respect, reflect on the importance of remembrance and gain a deeper appreciation of the freedoms we enjoy today. We are extremely proud of the respectful manner in which our students represented the College and thank the Wedderburn–Korong Vale RSL for organising this important community occasion. Lest We Forget.

SAVED THE TREES

Common sense has prevailed and the trees surrounding the junior primary building and Steel Stadium have been saved. Unfortunately we have no chance of saving the tree over the junior sandpit. All trees will be trimmed in accordance with some regulations that I don't necessarily agree with but the alternative is concrete with no shade at all so we have agreed to stop our protests. The trees will not be at their optimum best over the next few months however in time they will bounce back.

🚧 ROAD SAFETY WORKS UPDATE 🚧

Important Information for Parents, Carers and the School Community

While we understand these ongoing works may cause some inconvenience, the installation of four new pedestrian crossings will significantly improve safety for our students, families, staff and wider community. The Chapel Street car park is open for the time being with asphalting to occur at a later date.

We thank everyone for their patience, cooperation and understanding as these important improvements are completed.
