24.01.2022 Don't forget to purchase your wristband for the Year 6 mini fete!!

22.01.2022 4T have had an amazing time this week visiting Healthy Harold for Life Education. We learnt all about medicines; how they can be helpful and how they affect our bodies. We also learnt about communication, and how to speak to others respectfully and kindly. It was great to play some games, hear Healthy Harold's dad jokes and have some laughs. We can't wait until the Life Education van comes back next year!

22.01.2022 Young Leaders Day Our school leaders had a great day in Darling Harbour. They listened to many fascinating people and were amazed by their stories of courage and determination.

20.01.2022 3B Green have been working hard in literacy groups each day to improve their reading, writing and typing skills. They have particularly enjoyed working collaboratively with their reading groups on our whiteboard table, where they have the chance to build their vocabulary with word work and enhance their comprehension skills by exploring texts in more detail.

20.01.2022 Friday 4 September - Jersey Day. Jersey Day focuses on raising awareness of The Organ and Tissue Authority, the Donate Life network, and the importance of organ and tissues donations for those in need. Jersey Day is inspired by the story of Nathan Gremmo who tragically lost his life in an accident in May, 2015. Nathan’s family chose to give the gift of life to others to honour the legacy of Nathan’s generous nature. John Palmer Public School will not be raising funds for J...ersey Day, but we encourage students to wear a sports jersey to school on Friday 4 September to do our bit in raising awareness. Students who do not have a sports jersey are encouraged to wear a plain coloured shirt. Students are still required to wear appropriate, enclosed footwear and have a hat. Did You Know >1 organ and tissue donor can transform the lives of 10 or more people >Australia is the world leader for successful transplant outcomes. See more
