Year 1 Update

The start of Term 2 has been fantastic, students have quickly settled into our routine and rigour, displaying positive attitudes towards learning and play. They have maintained learning from Term 1 to enable them to connect to our new learnings this term. We are extremely proud of their efforts already in Term 1 and particularly the respect they showed in our ANZAC day service during assembly. What a great start to a new term!
