A Note from the Principal
It has been a marvellous week in Primary with so many amazing events and activities showcasing our students’ incredible talents. From the Bangkok Games to home-made games in Year 4, poetry performances in Year 3, and a final celebration of learning through our 3-Way Conferences and Parent-Teacher Meetings. Wow, what a community!
Thank you to all our students, staff and families for your energy, enthusiasm and support. As we head into the final stretch of term, we are so proud of everything our children have achieved and the spirit of curiosity, kindness and celebration that shines through.

Events Around the World
You can keep up to date with current events around the world by watching Newsround, an age appropriate news show. Being aware of current events will help your child to make connections with a range of themes when reading in class, and it is an ideal opportunity for you to model discussing your opinions and using experiences to draw connections between events and people.
