After an incredibly long remote learning experience, everyone was happy for the first day of Term 4. A par...ent of a Year 2 student said - "The teachers have done a wonderful job and as parents, we now appreciate what teachers do a lot more!

19.01.2022 Congratulations to Liza Griffin, 14, of Balwyn North, a finalist in The eighth annual Young Archie competition exhibition at the Art Gallery of New South Wales. Inspired by the Archibald Prize, the Young Archie competition invites children and teenagers aged five to 18 to submit a portrait of someone who is special to them and plays a significant role in their life. Lisa's art work below is titled "Jann at work". Lisa said: "I have chosen to draw my art teacher, Jann. She has... inspired me to do so much with my art. I get to teach art classes with her to younger students on Mondays after school and I thoroughly enjoy our conversations on the way back from art classes with her. She has a unique, bright personality and she always wears her apron, covered with paint, her round glasses and bright red lipstick (that always seems to find its way onto her teeth!). My mind automatically went straight to Jann as soon as I heard about this competition." See more

She has sequestrums in both eyes needing daily medication so we are very eager to get her home. We would be grateful if you can please check garages, sheds and under bushes as she may have found her way inside over the long weekend.
