We are asking all students to collect spare change/coins and add them to their classroom bottles. The class that raises the most money by Week 9 will be the winner....

17.01.2022 YEAR 5 FAMILIES - ITS TIME TO ORDER SENIOR SHIRTS FOR 2021 Just a reminder for Year 5 students to get your 2021 Senior Shirt order in. Shirts cost $40. ... These sublimated shirts will have all students names on the back and are a great keepsake for their final year. All year 5's have received letters with information about these shirts, along with an order form. WE ADVISE ALL YEAR 5 STUDENTS COME TO THE OFFICE TO TRY ON A SENIOR SHIRT FOR SIZE as there are no exchanges or extra purchases after the closing date of 19 November. Please note that these shirts are very different sizes to our normal school shirts and therefore it is imperitive that shirts are tried on for size.

15.01.2022 4K started investigating forces through a "60-second slam" challenge. Students had to use a push or pull force to quickly remove the paper plate and try to get the ping pong ball into the cup in 60 seconds. It was a lot of fun!

15.01.2022 Many students have returned their holiday reading challenge booklets already. It has been great to see the enthusiasm of students who have committed to improving their reading over the break. For those who have yet to return forms, please do so as soon as possible with ‘reading rewards movie and popcorn’ to be conducted early in week 3

10.01.2022 Born in blue, school is for you. Born in red, then kindy instead! Not sure whether your child is old enough to start kindy or Prep in 2021? Check out the Kindy or Prep poster. https://bit.ly/36R2ydr

10.01.2022 The start of the school year seems like a distant memory but for our Preps, that passage of time represents a year of wonder, when they learnt to read and write and made friendships that will last them a lifetime. As their first year of schooling ended, Zacharie and Matthew talked with Mrs Garcia about some of their big moments. Soon enough a new school year will be upon us and with it, another cohort of Prep students eager to learn and embrace what it means to be a part of Ipswich Central State School
