Travelling at more than 50,000km per hour the Mars 2020 is currently hurtling toward the red planet with the most ambitious robotic explorer to date, Perseverance.

In 2020, whilst we can't have our usual assembly we can still continue the tradition by donating a present or dollar amount to the CPS Barnardos Xmas Appeal using the link provided. The gifts donated on this site will then be distributed to families in time for Christmas.

05.01.2022 Good morning Parents and Carers One of our SLSO staff members (Rebecca) shared this with us today. Its a great message from Dr Zeuss related to these strange times of teaching and learning during COVID-19 days. Please note though we wont be teaching through Zoom! .... Google Classroom will still be our Remote Learning Platform! The important message though, is that we will always be here for your children and their needs are our priority. Teachers will be checking in with... their students via phone and the google classroom regularly. Please take care and stay safe. Try not to worry if your child cant do everything that has been set for their remote learning daily tasks. At CPS we are all still learning about this new way teach our students and make sure that they continue to be engaged in their learning and connected with their teachers and classmates. We will continue to make necessary tweaks and changes to the online learning programs as required, as we become more familiar with this way of working with our students. Contact your childs teacher if you are concerned though. See more
