Education Week and Community Engagement
Education Week across Victoria begins on Sunday 21st May. The theme for Education Week this year is ‘Healthy Mind, Healthy Body’.
On Wednesday 24th May at 9.15am, we invite family members to the Bundoora Campus for a tour of our facilities and programs with a healthy mind and healthy body focus.
In our previous newsletter, I advertised that we will invite family members to Concord School for an activity on Friday 26th May with set times for each campus. Friday 26th May remains the day for this event, however times for each campus have changed slightly; we would like Bundoora Campus families to attend from 9.15am to 10.30am and Watsonia Campus families from 11.30 to 12.30pm.

Book Fair at Bundoora Campus
The Book Fair is currently running in the Bundoora Campus library. All students at the Bundoora Campus have an opportunity to view a wide range of books on display that are available for sale from Scholastic Books. Once students have visited the fair they will take home information on how to purchase a book of their choice from the fair.
