Principal's Report

PREP BUDDIES:

 

This afternoon our Prep students spent time playing games with their grade 6 buddies on the oval.  The connections between the students are fabulous!

Comments from the Preps: 

"I love my Buddy"

"This is so much fun playing with my Buddy"

Comments from the Grade 6's 

"Its great being responsible for my Prep buddy"

"I love being a Buddy and I still remember my buddy from when I was in prep!"

PRINCIPAL CONFERENCE: I was fortunate enough to participate in the Manningham/Monash Principal Conference at San Remo yesterday. It provided some great insights which I have brought back to our school. The focus was on wellbeing and its importance for students, staff and our community.

 

So, on that note, be kind to your self and enjoy the weekend.

Cape Woolamai - yes there was time for a beach walk!
