24.01.2022 A Big thank you to all our wonderful families and staff that joined in for our first Day For Daniel FUN Run we raised $ 920.96 for the foundation. If you want to add to this total we would love to reach $1000.00 so please go to the link www.D4DFUNraiser.com.au and donate. @DanielMorcombeFoundation

24.01.2022 We hope all children enjoyed their Day for Daniel. To date it has raised $120,000 for the Daniel Morcombe Foundation! This leaves only $30,000 to hit the goal of creating the new educational program ‘Keeping Safe With Morky’. Being able to create this program will mean the Foundation can implement an Australian wide program that educates millions of Australian children! Well done everyone, lets keep the donations coming, please remember to create a profile for your child and share on your social media for families and friends.www.D4DFUNraiser.com.au

24.01.2022 Good afternoon everyone, Please be aware that there is a magpie hanging around the car park close to the driveway entrance. It is swooping people who get too close so please be on the lookout when moving around the car park. Many thanks, Amy

23.01.2022 What an exciting morning for our Kindy friends! We were finally able to attend the performance of The Gruffalo’s Child at the MECC, something we have waited nearly all year for! After a short but exciting bus ride to the Entertainment Centre, we found our seats and the show began. It was amazing and the children loved the singing and being able to interact with show as well! Thanks to our parent helpers and Miss Hana for preparing a yummy snack for us. A great morning was had by all!
