21.01.2022 Hi all, this letter was sent home this afternoon in response to the statewide lockdown announcement earlier today. We hope everyone stays safe, calm and looks after each other. We will have a skeleton staff at school tomorrow to supervise students of essential workers. To everyone else please take care. We will update you as soon as more information becomes available. If you need anything please contact us at the school. Adam COVID-19 parent letter... Dear parent/caregiver, Today the Premier announced a 6 day statewide lockdown starting at midnight tonight (Wednesday 18 November) through to midnight Tuesday 24 November. Only the children of essential workers and vulnerable children will be able to attend school or preschool / child care. A skeleton staff will provide supervision but not a learning program for the remainder of this week. If your child needs to attend, we will be here for them. All students have been asked to take home school laptops/devices, books and anything they need to continue their learning from home. More information on learning programs will be provided early next week, as we work our way through the new COVID-19 Directions. All South Australians are making sacrifices to ensure our community remains as safe as possible. We appreciate that this is a significant undertaking for you and your family. Your child’s teacher, our support staff and I are here to support you where we can. Regards, Adam Blakely

15.01.2022 On Friday 14th August 14 enthusiastic students from Hahndorf PS competed in the Round 1 SAPSASA Knockout Soccer Carnival. There were 4 schools competing, each playing 3 games. Our boys won 2 out of 3 games and finished second on the day. Mt Barker South PS were the eventual winners and now proceed to the next round. We wish them the best. The Hahndorf PS students were exhausted at the end of the day and should be really proud of their efforts and positive attitudes. A big thanks to Mt Barker South PS for hosting and organising the event. Thanks also to the many parents from our school that attended and cheered on our team and to Shane Sickerdick, who helped with umpiring and transporting students.

The girls fought bravely but were defeated in both games played on Monday 31/8/20 at the Woodside Netball Courts. Woodside PS and Aldgate PS were both strong teams, with Aldgate PS winning both of their games and progressing to the next round. Our team demonstrated positive attitudes and they should be proud of reaching the second round of the competition. Thanks to the parents that assisted with transportation and cheered the team on. A big thanks to Melissa Stapleton for umpiring on the day and Brenton Canty for scoring and time keeping.
