Dear Parents and Carers,

 

Welcome back, everyone. I hope you all had a restful break. I've loved hearing all the stories about what students and families got up to over the holidays while being on gates in the morning and walking around classrooms.

 

Term 4 is always a big one, and this year is no exception. Life Education is visiting next week, and our Year 2 students have their Sovereign Hill excursion coming up, which I’m especially excited about because I get to go along! We also have our Prep Breakfast and our Colour Run to look forward to. Later in the term, we'll begin our transition sessions to help every student get ready for 2027. 

 

This term is a particularly important time for our Year 6s as they prepare for their Graduation on Wednesday 9 December. Before that, our Year 5/6 students head off to camp at The Ranch in early December. 

 

So there are lots of fantastic events to look forward to, alongside all the great learning happening in our classrooms every day.

 

A few reminders:

  • Hats. As the weather warms up, a reminder that students must wear a broad-brimmed hat whenever they’re outside. Any student without a hat at Play 1 or Play 2 will need to stay in the shade of the canteen area.
  • Arriving on time. Classrooms open at 8:50am for our soft start, and learning begins at 9:00am sharp. Arriving on time helps your child settle in and start the day ready to learn, so please make sure they’re at school by 9:00am.

     

Here's to a fantastic Term 4!

 

Have a lovely weekend.
