23.01.2022 A huge thank you for the generous donation of 90 Interschool t-shirts, from Bayview Orthodontics. Just in time for the Interschool Carnival next week. They look fabulous and will be available to all our budding Freshie athletes in years to come!

21.01.2022 Principal Mr Reid delivered a package from the North Pole to Hughes 1 Pre Primary this morning and Santa's helpers have been busy all morning!.

21.01.2022 Open Night was embraced by all the Freshwater Bay community with many turning out to see the students work on display. There was so much activity and music and the students were so proud to show off their work and their school. Thank you to all the parents and grandparents who attended and thank you to all the teachers for getting the school looking so wonderful and vibrant.

17.01.2022 Music and Drama Our Year 6 students have been busy creating their own original music and filming a video clip, which they will then edit on iMovie and submit for their final assessment for 2020.

16.01.2022 Welcome to Tangney 1's beautiful assembly.

16.01.2022 COVID-19 was the theme for this years staff photo. It was great to see everyone smiling and having a little fun, after what has been an extraordinary year.

16.01.2022 This week T6 performed The Little Red Hen in French for Hughes 1 and Hughes 2. Their timing, expression and pronunciation was fantastic, and the PP buddies thoroughly enjoyed the show. Little Red Hen's friends are reluctant to help sow the seeds, cut the wheat or make the flour but expect to eat the delicious bread which results from Hen's work. After the show, the PPs described a good friend in their own words - they suggested kind, caring, respectful and helpful. Bravo! We are looking forward to French Day next Wednesday!

15.01.2022 Yesterday the Town of Claremont in collaboration with a class of year 3 and 4 students from Freshwater Bay Primary school, had the pleasure of meeting a group of local senior citizen volunteers to promote the upcoming Seniors Week. The morning saw the students mingle with the seniors, playing games and engaging with them in small groups, discussing how these seniors viewed ageing and what the students thought getting old meant. They enjoyed a delicious morning tea. It was a gorgeous opportunity for an intergenerational connection, the students enjoyed gaining advice from the older members of our community and it allowed the seniors to see themselves through a younger lens.

12.01.2022 The string students have been learning a special selection of 'French-themed' pieces from their repertoire. They have enjoyed learning these songs over the past term and thought it was only fitting to share with you all on French Day! Merci Flavia Todea.

10.01.2022 Book Week is always an exciting time across the school. This year Tangney 3 and 4 created their own stories based around Bruce Pascoe's Young Dark Emu. The stories can be read on Open Night, being held on Thursday 17 September 4.30pm to 6.30pm, in the Yarning Circle amongst all the other extraordinary displays designed and created by our talented teachers and students. We look forward to welcoming all our community to the event.

07.01.2022 SCIENCE DAY THIS FRIDAY Students will participate in a range of classroom science activities which have been designed to support the school’s science curriculum and encourage all students (Pre-primary to Year 6) to explore scientific concepts. Dressing up is not compulsory but if you have any Science accessories that your child could wear over the top of their uniform, we’d love to see some lab coats, crazy Scientist wigs, bow ties or goggles around the school.

02.01.2022 Yesterday we welcomed the families of Hughes and C1 to celebrate Dad style! The children sang the song ‘I Love My Daddy!’ and shared the things they love the most about their special person. To conclude everyone indulged in a delicious hotdog and gift exchange. Wishing all our Dads a wonderful Father’s Day!

01.01.2022 Buddy classes - Year 2 C6 and Year 5 T3 worked together on a special project to create cards/posters of gratitude for Health workers in Victoria who still remain very much on the front line. The words and drawings of thanks, encouragement and affirmation were sent to the Royal Melbourne Hospital. We hope it lifts the collective spirit.

01.01.2022 Last Friday the Interschool Athletics Carnival was held at Swanbourne Primary School. Freshwater Bay PS came fourth and our students did us proud. The students are to be commended for their sportsmanship and camaraderie.

01.01.2022 Kindy students from Lime and Orange celebrated Science Day earlier this week. There were so many opportunities to experiment with colour, shapes, shadows, textures, reactions using different liquids and so much more.

01.01.2022 FRESHIE DADS held its annual fundraising event on Sunday, hosting a Bunnings Sausage Sizzle in Claremont for Father’s Day. We had a wonderful team of 18 dads plus some grand-dads and kids working together selling hotdogs from 7am to 4pm. We had a lot of fun over the course of the day with dads getting to connect and the kids did an amazing job working the till (good math’s practice), spruiking for customers and learning the fine art of BBQ-ing. Despite the unfavorable weathe...r in the afternoon, the team managed to collect $569. The money raised will be put towards organising future activities for dads and kids over the next few school terms. These activities are to provide opportunities for fathers and father-figures at the school to bond with their kids and connect with other fathers. We’d like to thank our sponsor D'Orsogna for their generous support of this event, providing some amazing sausages which were very popular with our customers. Steve On behalf of Freshie Dads.
