Year 6 Graduation

Congratulations to the Year 6 students, who celebrated their graduation last night at school. It was such a pleasure to see so many families join us to share this wonderful event. Special thanks to the Year 6 Team, Tegan Clark, Katharine Thomas and Liam Szczepanski for the significant body of work they completed preparing the students and the event. Thank you also to the many HPS staff who contributed to the preparation leading up and support on the evening. Although the rain tried hard at the end, it still didn't dampen the celebrations.

Farewell and Thank you

At the end of the 2021 school year we will see the end of the tenure of our school council president, Mel Cadman. Mel has made a significant contribution over many years in a number of areas across the school, particularly in the area of buildings and grounds. A great deal of the work around the grounds had been done personally by Mel, with many hours of her time given to these tasks and many others to support the school. On behalf of the HPS school community I would like to sincerely thank Mel for her time, energy and commitment and wish her all the very best for the future.

Kind regards

Brett MacKenzie
