Principal's Report

Junior Production

The Junior Production Marvellous Inventions which included amazing songs performed by the Junior School and Kindergarten, to a packed theatre on Wednesday evening also had HMAS Streitberger sailing through Nelson Bay! A big thank you and appreciation to Claire Andrews for writing the show. How she brings it all together I do not know. Thank you also to Tegan Kitteringham  and Seona Cosgriff for all their work with students on dances and songs.

Thanks also to Mel Seadon for props, Jo Smaller for the time machine and Nick Dix for all his great photography. Thank you to all Junior and Kinder Staff for rehearsals and costumes and Senior Staff who came along to support us on the night.

Staff would also like to take this opportunity to thank our families for their emails, morning tea treats and positive comments for both the Junior and Senior Productions. These mean a lot and when you're feeling a little tired, they can be very uplifting. So thank you to those people who take the time out of their busy schedules to thank staff it is very much appreciated.

Hoop Time

Our annual Hoop time was held last week at Mullum Mullum stadium. Students from 5/6 compete at different levels against local schools depending on their basketball playing experience. Our teams represented themselves and the school with excellent sportsmanship and comitmant. Thank you to Cassie Brisbane for making sure so many students could take part.

Band Performance

We were treated to a moving performance by the band accompanied by Griffin on vocals. I thank Mr Andrew Shaw and Mr Chris Rodgers for all their work with the band over the year.
