Principal’s Day Australia - Friday 4th August

Next Friday the 4th of August is Principal’s Day Australia. We would like to acknowledge one of the most hardworking people at our school. Mr. McEntee has been at our school for so long now and the whole time he has done a lot of work like organising our newsletter piece and running our school without him there would be no OLPS. He has done a great job in making our school look good, with lots of new buildings, plants, a back oval and playgrounds. We thank him for all of these wonderful things that we get to enjoy.

POEM of the week: For Our Preps

We've been learning for a while.

In fact, in 100 days we can spell, read and write.

We can count in many ways.

We've had fun and made good friends but it isn't over yet.

Let’s keep it going, going, going, and see how smart we can get.

Looking 100 Years Old:

Here are 2 of our School Captains with their 2023 Prep Buddy - when they celebrated their 100 days of school back in 2017.
