Lemonade: Our School Pet
🐦 Lemonade’s Weekend Adventures!
Our school pet Lemonade the budgie has been going on different adventures with our families for the weekend! 🏡💛
Lemonade’s adventure journal is filling up with lots of fun and interesting stories, photos and special memories from each weekend.
But now we have a very important question…
🌟 Who will take Lemonade home for TWO WEEKS? 🌟
We can’t wait to see what exciting adventure Lemonade goes on next! 🐦📖✨
🐦💛 Thank You, Rory!
A big thank you to Rory Fish from 5/6J for researching and organising the new bird feeders and perches for Lemonade!
Thank you Rosa & Sooty
A big thank you to Rosa & Sooty for creating a beautiful, collaborative and creative cover for Lemonade’s cage. 🐦💛
Their thoughtful design helps our special pet budgie feel safe, comfortable and cosy throughout the night. We really appreciate the time, creativity and care that went into making it.
💛 R U OK? Day
Our students celebrated R U OK? Day by enjoying a special yellow iced doughnut and learning the importance of checking in with friends.
Students were encouraged to ask the simple question: “R U OK?” and to listen, care and support one another.
A big thank you to everyone who helped make the day a positive reminder that a conversation can make a difference! 💛
Student Voice!
A huge shoutout to our amazing students for using their student voice to organise and bring Crazy Hair Day to life!
It was a fun, colourful and creative day, with lots of fantastic hairstyles, smiles and school spirit! ✨
Well done to our students for sharing their ideas and making Crazy Hair Day such a success!
