Principal News

Welcome to week 11!

Congratulations to all of our staff and students on an amazing Christmas concert. Thank you to the P and C, Miss Jade, staff and students for all of your support on the night. Mr Martin prepared the grounds and Mrs Henderson helped with the program and running of the concert.

Our plan to have the concert in the hall worked well.

We wish our year 6 students all the best for high school next year. The year 6 Graduation was a beautiful celebration. Thank you to staff, parents and students who attended this lovely evening. Miss Blackman did an excellent job and organised the evening very well.

Lastly, I would like to take this opportunity to wish staff, community and students a wonderful Christmas and may you have a happy, healthy and successful New Year. It is a special time when family and friends meet and connect together. I hope your travels over the holidays will be safe. Thank you for your support this year.

The rest of the week is going to be great!
