Congratulations to Pax H (1BH) who, over the holidays, earned his Orange Belt 9 KYU in karate. 

Well done 💪🏼!

If your child achieves something special (grand final win, most valuable player award, best and fairest etc.), please email me (jordan.daley@education.vic.gov.au) through photos and an overview of the achievement to post in Contact. It is important to celebrate and recognise such successes with the school community.
