Principal's Message

Good afternoon, Parents/Carers,

Term 3 has got off to a flying start and all students have settled in and working hard. Many activities will be occurring in the coming weeks, so we ask that you look to our school calendar for all events that are taking place.  Please also check your children's bags for notes coming home.

NSW Primary Schools Chess Competition

Congratulations to Ashton, Dominic, Ethan, Jackson, Kaedan, Kobi, Lachy, Lebron, Tailor and Thomas who competed in the NSW Primary Schools Chess Competition at St Xavier's Primary School in Gunnedah last Friday.  A big thank you to the Parents who assisted us at such short notice in transporting these students to the event.  We really do appreciate it.   All students were outstanding in their deep thinking and problem-solving skills to win a number of matches.  Our team of Ashton, Dom, Lachy and Lebron won the day and are through to the next round of competition.  We are very proud of you.  A big thank you to Mr Wilcox for attending this event with our students.
