03.01.2022 Yesterday students in grade 3 to 6 had the opportunity to participate in a long run in our school grounds. Our students participated in a zig zag running course of our school oval and basketball court area completing lots of laps to run our required distance. Congratulations to all students for challenging themselves to complete this long run. Well done to our place getters in each race. We had a couple of students who chose not to have their photo taken.

02.01.2022 NWPSSA Inter Primary Cross Country tomorrow. Please see below post regarding COVID restrictions, unfortunately parents are unable to attend.

02.01.2022 On Thursday..... From the moment the student enters the room, the captivating performer takes them on a 45-minute journey filled with humour, yo-yo and magic tricks, puppetry, and storytelling. The Live-Stream assembly introduces a cartoon boy named NED who is on a very important mission: to find his mindset. Led by clues and memorable characters, he overcomes Mt. Everests toughest obstacles, uncovers inner-treasures on a Caribbean island, and grows his brain while repairing... a sputtering spaceship. Throughout the performance, your students discover how to activate their growth mindset to overcome social, emotional and academic challenges. Inspiring students to: Never give up - understand the Power of yet Encourage others - spark courage in other people Do your best - always be learning and growing Students will be bringing home a form today which will let you know the cost of the Yo-Yos should you wish to purchase. For more information regarding this performance please see attached clip below. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gn8EgAYdfHI See more
