Junior School

Dear Junior School families,

The Junior School has begun third term with a musical bang! The Little Choir performed a lovely short concert on the first day of term. This event was well attended by many family members and friends, all enjoying the captivating performance.  

 

Excitement is building as rehearsals are in full swing for our Junior School production of 'Cats.' The corridors are filled with the melodious voices of the children as they practice their beautiful singing.

 

Our Foundation students marked a significant milestone by celebrating 100 days of learning this week. They proudly accepted their certificates and wore their special party hats as they celebrated with a day of fun filled activities. 

 

Years 5 and 6 are working hard on developing their leadership and skills through the Peer Support training, Tournament of Minds, and Interschool Debating, all of which contribute to their personal growth and confidence.

 

The Junior School Art program was honoured by being selected for a special Independent Schools Victoria Student Exhibition at Docklands. It is a wonderful celebration of the creativity of our Junior School students.

 

Overall, the Junior School is buzzing with enthusiasm and accomplishment, setting the stage for an inspiring and rewarding third term.
