Principal's Report

Education Week 

This week Victorian schools are celebrating Education Week. The aim of the week is to celebrate all the great things that are happening in our schools. It gives parents, grandparents and extended family the opportunity to come into their child’s classroom and see them and their peers at work. 

All year levels have sent out invitations to families inviting them to pop in for a visit throughout the week. We hope to see lots of you around the school this week. 

Hot Food Day 

On Wednesday May 29 we are having a Hot Food Day (sausage sizzle). Information on how to order was sent out via Compass on Monday. If you haven’t ordered for your child yet, please don’t forget as we don’t want them to miss out. 

Orders must be done on Qkr (same app for Uniform) by 10am Friday May 24. 

Thank you to those parents who have volunteered to help out on the day. We still need a few more parent helpers between 10am and 2pm, to help cook and distribute the sausages and drinks. If you can help for some time between 10 and 2pm it would be greatly appreciated. 

If you are able to help please email preston.ps@education.vic.gov.au and include your name, contact phone number and the times that you would be available.

Hot Food Days are always a great day for the kids. 

Prep 2025 

We are currently in the process of running our Prep Information tours. If you have a child who is due to start school in 2025 please contact our enrolment coordinator Michelle Garvey at michelle.garvey@education.vic.gov.au

If you have any family or friends who have a child starting school (Preston PS) in 2025 please let them know they need to contact the school. 

Mother’s Day 

I hope all of our mothers loved the beautiful gift and card their child made them to celebrate Mother’s Day. Each of the year levels made different gifts for their mums. I hope all of our mums and grandmothers had an enjoyable day on Sunday. 

Regards,

Janet Paterson
