22.01.2022 It's that time of the year when the Year 6 students challenge the very talented OLQP staff for bragging rights to the infamous OLQP trophy. Today it was netball and it was a tight game but the teachers triumphed over the Year 6 students with an outstanding win 7-5. Better luck tomorrow Year 6 when we play Tetris Towers..

21.01.2022 Each term, boys and girls in Stage 3 who love reading are invited to participate in an optional bookclub. We meet for breakfast or supper, usually with a parent and discuss a selected text. This term we sadly couldn't have Mums and Dads with us due to COVID but enjoyed some breakfast treats while discussing the futuristic text "How To Bee" by Bren MacDibble. This is one of many fabulous books we have read over the last two years as a group.

20.01.2022 Today we had an incursion for National Science Week.
