Principal's Report

Dear Families,

We are heading towards the end of Week 3 already! Last week, our Swimming Program saw  students travelling to Aquamoves daily. There was a strong emphasis on water safety during the lessons which was very valuable. Staff were very impressed with how organised the kids were when changing after each lesson. They did a great job. No lost socks, which is a first!!

REGIONAL ATHLETICS, ALBURY

Declan Doller competed in the Highjump event at the Regional Athletics competition in Albury last Friday. He jumped a personal best height of 135cm and placed third overall.

Congratulations to you Declan, we are very proud of you!

Please note the following important dates:

• Monday 3rd November – Professional Practice Day (no school for students)

BUS TRAVEL

Just a reminder that if students are travelling on a bus and they normally don't or they are travelling on a different bus to normal, we require a note, phonecall or a XUNO message so that we can inform the bus drivers about the different travellers on their bus service. 

Enjoy the rest of the week,
