Term 3

It has been a huge term at Jells Park PS and we have seen many achievements despite a number of challenges. The building works are well underway and we thank everyone in the community for their support and understanding during this time.

We have seen many fantastic results from the dedication of our students, teachers and families including some incredible results from Maths Talent Quest and Tournament Of The Minds. Our delegation of students to the recent State School Spectacular event at Hisense Arena performed last weekend and did an amazing job. I was lucky enough to see the fruits of their labour on Saturday afternoon and it was a truly spectacular performance. As usual the dedication of our teachers and families at JPPS allowed for these students to explore their passions and participate in a genuine experience that they will remember for the rest of their lives.

Next Term we look forward to an array of events and achievements, including our biennial Art Show and annual school concert. As usual we also look forward to seeing our esteemed Level 6 students finishing off their time at JPPS with many special events planned, culminating with the graduation ceremony, which is being planned and organised in collaboration with a dedicated team of parents.

Thank you to the whole school community for a successful Term 3 and please have a well earned and safe school holiday. See you in Term 4 to enjoy a busy and fulfilling final term for 2017.
