Upcoming Events

BOOM Days

This week BOOM day kicked off again. This is an initiative that is part of our focus on being a Positive Education school, in which students are able to dress a little differently. This week the theme was Boardies/Summer shorts, as we reflected on the holidays and cling onto summer. Games were also run in the Gym for Year 5/6 students & staff.

 

Upcoming themes:

  • Thursday,  Feb 18 - BLING
  • Jewellery is in, wear it loud & proud (for one day only!)
  • Thursday, March 3 - M&M
  • Wear something that shows off your favorite M&M colour
  • Thursday, March 17 - When I grow up I want to be .....
  • Be creative wear something that fits with a job you would love to do one day.

So go on JOIN in the FUN.
