25.01.2022 Week 9 at The Woden School!

25.01.2022 The Woden School will proudly be supporting wear it purple on Friday the 28th! Wear it Purple Day is an opportunity to connect as a community and support each other. Wear it Purple Day is a celebration of the spirit of LGBTIQ+ youth as purple symbolises spirit on the rainbow pride flag. It is a day of acceptance and to raise awareness that, while we have made progress, young LGBTIQ+ people still experience discrimination, prejudice and harassment in our community. Don't forget to wear purple for Wear It Purple Day on Friday!

We are sorry. ... #sorryday #stolengenerations #inthistogether #NRW2020 Thank you to Key Word Sign Australia for these inclusive visuals and meaningful message. ACT Public Schools

19.01.2022 Happy Monday wonderful community! For many young people, structure and routine is incredibly important - especially during this this time of complex change. For those learning from home, we have created a suggested timetable that your young person may find helpful in creating a sense of structure. ... Please contact the school if you would like a modified version that better suits the individual needs of your young person/your family. We hope you're all staying safe and keeping well! Feel free to share far and wide - if you think it could be of use to others in your internet world We're all in this together. ACT Public Schools Yvette Berry Sue Larkey

19.01.2022 School Chicken Run Over the last few years we have been building up our school gardens and shade structures. While COVID 19 may have seemed to have us laying-low, for teachers, LSA’s and other school staff that is far from the truth. Many works are underway not only for online/alternative learning but improvements around the school.... One such project is a chicken coop that is to be built by students. Posts and a slab have been laid for a coop and garden shed. This is a project to enable our students the opportunity to gain carpentry skills. We are on the lookout for building material donations so we can continue the project when students come back into the school. We are looking for: Frames - H3 90 x 45mm Bearers H3 - 140 x 45 x 5m long Base Plate - H4 100 x 50 Into the future, we will be on the look out for roof battens, corrugated sheeting and other materials to finish the build. Keep your eyes peeled for further progress on this exciting initiative! If you’re able to help please contact the school at Email: [email protected] Phone: 02 6142 0200 Thanks in advance!
