25.01.2022 We are looking for donations of inflatable pools for the Colour Run? We have hundreds of balls and just need some of these pools to pop them in for some extra fun on Thursday. If you have one and don't want anymore we will gladly take it off your hands. If you can leave at the office that would be great. Thanks!

25.01.2022 Today is National Respect. This is a great day to practice our 3 simple steps to respect. Kind Words - be mindful of what you say and also what you post onlin...e. Gentle Hands - there is never any excuse to cause physical harm to another person. Listening Ears - really take the time to listen to what others are saying to you. If we practice these simples things all the time we can create a respectful community for all. See more

23.01.2022 From Ms Lyden (Netball Coach): The year 5 and year 6 girls played amazing netball this season and today. Year 5’s placed 3rd overall, and Year 6’s 2nd. We always make it to the grand finals and the girls really do our school proud. Our girls are known now in the sports circuit for being a top... competitor and Mrs Delacour and I were extremely proud of them. I was approached by another school, and commended for the skills they see coming from Kippa every year. See more
