Principal's Report
Mr. Lehane
Welcoming Our New Teachers!
As we prepare to say goodbye to two of our wonderful classroom teachers, we are also very excited to welcome two new teachers to the Bridgewater Primary School community for 2027!
Joining our team are:
- Foundation–Grade 2: Matisse Grills-Marsili
- Grade 3–6: Hope Golding
Both Matisse and Hope are looking forward to becoming part of our school community and bringing their own unique ideas, experiences and enthusiasm to our classrooms.
We are excited about the fresh perspectives and opportunities they will bring to Bridgewater and look forward to introducing them to our students and families.
Please take a moment to get to know Matisse and Hope through their introductions below. We can't wait to welcome them officially to Bridgewater!
World Teachers Day
Today we celebrate World Teachers Day. We are very fortunate to have an amazing staff that help build the fantastic culture and atmosphere of Bridgewater Primary School. Please read our World Teachers Day page to hear how each of our teachers have contributed to our school and how they go above and beyond to make our school great!
Principal Long Service Leave
From November 20th to Thursday 3rd December I will be taking Long Service and will be out of the state. While I am away Miss Coffey will be taking on higher duties. If anyone has any whole school concerns or questions please direct them to her.
End of year Celebrations
We have two main end of year celebrations. The first is the BOLD Community carols on the 4th December and the second is our schools end of year celebration (which would normally double as a Graduation evening).
BOLD Carols
The BOLD Community Carols will be hosted at our school and we hope that you can help spread the word to as many people as possible. This night is a fantastic community event and is open to everyone!
End of Year Celebration
The end of year celebration will be held at the hall. This is for families and friends of our students to see and hear about their acheivements throughout this year. Our end of year awards will also be handed out on the night.
River Swimming
This year we will once again be working with the awesome Deb Gordois to complete our River Swimming Program. Permission forms will be sent out with more detailed information soon.
If your child has a wetsuit and/or life jacket can you please send it with them each day. Deb does endeavour to supply wetsuits and lifejackets for all students but sizing can be difficult to get perfect.
Our River swimming program will be on the below dates:
Friday 4th December
Monday 7th December
Tuesday 8th December
Wednesday 9th December
Thursday 10th December
Friday 11th December
Tuesday 15th December
