23.01.2022 Save a life. Join 'Brian's Warriors'. A member of the BHNPS community, Brian is currently in the hospital battling Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML). One critical need for patients battling this terrible illness is regular blood, plasma and platelet transfusions. Covid-19 has led to chronic shortage in blood donations and current blood bank stocks are extremely low. Getting life-saving transfusions for Brian is a constant struggle, with the hospital at times having to manage criti...cally low supplies and is some cases having no stock available. We are asking the BHNPS community to help Brian, and the many people relying on blood donations for the gift of life, to donate blood to the Australian Red Cross urgently. Over the past two weeks staff at BHNPS have donated to Brian's lifeblood team. The Australian Red Cross offers Lifeblood Teams where people can donate blood either individually or in small groups and by quoting the team name, the team’s donations are tallied. Brian’s team is called Brian’s Warriors. Please call 131 495 or visit donateblood.com.au to make an appointment to donate blood, plasma or platelets, do not forget to join Brian’s team so your donation is captured in his tally. Blood can be donated every 12 weeks Plasma can be donated every 2 weeks Platelets every 2-4 weeks Seeking males for platelets Check https://www.donateblood.com.au/lifeblood-teams for your eligibility and make your appointment today. Your few minutes could save a lifetime. Your donation will not only help to save lives, but it will also give this special 13-year-old boy and his family much needed hope and support as they watch the tally grow. Make an appointment today.

07.01.2022 Recently BHNPS completed the External validation process. This is a requirement for all NSW schools every 4 years. The results showed that out of the 14 areas assessed, the school has been validated to be performing at the highest 'excelling' level in 8 of the 14 areas with the panel recommending that we should adjust a further two elements to the excelling level. The other areas remained at sustaining and growing but moving towards excelling. This is a great result for the school and a testament to the hard work undertaken by everyone in the last few years to ensure our students are being provided an outstanding educational service here at Baulkham Hills North. This video was shown at the opening of the External Validation panel meeting to showcase our school. We're sure youll be very proud of this amazing school while you watch it.
