Teachers' Day - Next Friday 25th October

Trivia Night

Thank you to Mr G for returning to host another Trivia Night for our school community.

Last year's Trivia Night was a huge success and I am sure you will not want to miss out on this years! NEXT FRIDAY!

Please make a table of as many as you can or we can add you onto another table and you can make some new friends.

Its a Halloween Theme (so dress up, if you like)

Class Considerations - closed

I have received some class considerations for class placements for 2025. We will endeavour to look at these requests when finalising our class groupings.

Students have also undertaken their friendship lists as this also plays a part as student voice is important to us.

Staff also know the students extremely well and they will also oversee these class groupings over a number of weeks before they get finalised.

Unfortunately, we will not be taking any further considerations as the process has now closed for parents.

Maintenance

As you will have noticed we have had a great deal of maintenance occurring over the past term. We have had some portables fixed through the VSBA (DET) as it had some major leaking, we have had our trees pruned and made safe by the 'Safe Tree Program' through the VSBA. These have all helped our school budgets as we have not had to pay for these works.

We have had however, a number of other projects which has consumed much of our funding- We have had to replace two evaporative air conditioners to be ready for the summer, our regular maintenance company has also had a skip in our school over the holidays to clean out broken furniture and excess storage rubbish at a cost to the school. 

CAN YOU HELP? Edible Garden or Worm Farming

We have these two projects within our school and we have some processes in place for these currently, however, I would like to see these improved in 2025.

I would like to see some of our school community who knows about planting edible plants to help oversee our garden space and assist us in maintaining this better. 

If you could be interested in either the worm farming or our edible garden, please contact me to discuss further.
