Coles Sports for Schools

Coles Sports for Schools is back to help Aussie kids stay fit and healthy. When you shop at Coles, you'll receive Sports for Schools vouchers (1 voucher for every $10 spent) that our school can exchange for sports gear. The more vouchers you collect, the more sports gear we will be able to redeem. There are drop boxes located in Coles Echuca, the Primary School office and also our School library. The campaign ends on Friday 11 May.

Start collecting today because the race is on!

If so, to be eligible for student concession fares, they will require a Transport for NSW Secondary Student Transport Concession Card. Please call 03 5480 5900 or see Lou at the office (Tuesday - Friday) before you head off.

Ready, set, read! The Premier's Reading Challenge 2018 is back for another amazing year of reading!

The Challenge aims to encourage a love of reading for leisure and pleasure in students, and to enable them to experience quality literature. It is not a competition but a challenge to each student to read, to read more and to read more widely.

Students from Kindergarten to Year 9 can participate. To enroll visit the Resource Centre and create your online reading record. Library staff will be available to help guide students to choose listed books.

More information is available on the PRC website.
