25.01.2022 From classroom desks to dining room tables. See how the students, parents and teachers from these schools navigated online learning, and what they learned together along the way. #EdWeek20 *Posted by the NSW Department of Education*

25.01.2022 Just sharing a few options on some great iPad cases that not only protects the iPad from bumps and breakages but also has a strap so students can easily carry it around with them and will always have a voice!

23.01.2022 ‘Learning together’ may have looked slightly different so far this year, but celebrating education and learning is perhaps even more important because of this. Our amazing Education Week team has created a range of engaging and interactive activities for students to participate in throughout the week, and although parents aren’t able to join us at school, you are encouraged to look at some of the virtual experiences with your child which are available on the department’s website https://education.nsw.gov.au//virtual-activities-for-edwee Don’t forget Dress-Up Tuesday this week!

22.01.2022 Thank you to all parents who have returned their Meet the Teacher slips. If you haven't done so, the very last day to return them is Monday. We look forward to seeing as many of you on your assigned day as possible to have a chat over a coffee and snack. A reminder that Meet the Teacher night is an informal event to give you a taster of what your child will be learning in 2021. You will get the opportunity to talk with your child's teacher individually and in-depth at a later date when discussing their Personalised Learning Plan. See you next week!

22.01.2022 Burru Class would like to ask anyone who has any newspapers that are written in a language other than English is they can please donate them to help us complete an art project with the theme "Around the World".
