Attendance Ladder
The Year 7 Forms are currently competing for a pizza lunch at the conclusion of the term. The winning form is based on which form has the best attendance for the term. The attendance ladder is out the front of the Junior School office. The competition is tight.
Student Success
As we continue on into Term 4, we remind all students to keep on top of their school work.
We ask all parents and students to please continue to inform us of any student achievement outside of the school. We are continually seeing excellence in and out of the classroom and look forward to celebrating more successes.
