21.01.2022 Thank you Grandparents Grandparents have always had a special role to play at our school. Each Grandparent Day, family members or special friends have given their time to visit our school, see their grandchildren in their special environment and take that opportunity for both grandparents and children to share stories of school days. Grandparents have always been great book buyers too! At our annual Grandparents Book sale, every book purchased adds to our book collection mai...ntaining choice, variety and quality for everyone to enjoy. This year our book sale is virtual to enable our grandparents to continue the tradition of encouraging reading by purchasing books online. Thank you Grandparents.

We also send a huge shout out of thanks to Eagle Hawk Hotel for supplying such delicious pizza.

06.01.2022 Continuing our learning together - Sutton’s Satellite Selfie Have you ever taken a selfie? What if you could take one from space? Wonder no more because during National Science Week this August we will be taking a selfie from space at Sutton Public School! During National Science Week this year, a satellite will fly over the ACT and surrounding area and will capture an image of as much of Canberra and the people in it as possible to create a time-capsule image of Australia's... Capital from above. Our school will be creating a very large image of the superb parrot that will be seen from space. The superb parrot is an endangered species in our area and we want to send up an SOS to save our superb parrot. The flyover will occur three times on Mon Aug 17, Wed Aug 19, and Fri Aug 21 between 10am and 11am. Keep an eye for our fantastic photo! Laurel Clark

05.01.2022 Double dough days! 1/2R have had some fun in the last two days with salt dough.

04.01.2022 Kindergarten’s 100 Day (plus a few) Party Kindergarten were super excited to finally be celebrating their 100 days of school with a belated party yesterday.

Despite the colder weather and lack of sunshine, we couldn’t wipe the smiles off our faces and finished up our party by enjoying a delicious icy pole. Hayley Steele l Classroom Teacher

02.01.2022 Sutton’s superb satellite selfie Sutton’s students worked hard last week to paint large sheets of paper that would come together to make an image of the superb parrot that could be seen from space. The superb parrot is an endangered bird in our region and we wanted to send a message up to space to save our beautiful bird. ... This morning teachers and students, together with Dr Damon Oliver and Alex, worked super fast to create our image on the top court. It all came together with seconds to spare. We look forward to seeing our satellite selfie soon. Sally Deacon and Laurel Clark Special mention to Nick.
