Week 7 Update
PP Assembly
Wow - what an amazing assembly we had last week that was run by our very creative PP1 class. The students did a fantastic job, retelling the book they have been studying in class, The Gruffalo. The students spoke very confidently and were certainly not shy in the least. Well done Mrs Corney and the Pre-Primaries for such an entertaining assembly. Congratulations to all of our Honour Certificate winners who were also recognised on the day. See full list of students below.
Deputy Head Boy and Deputy Head Girl
In second semester each year we hold elections for additional students to join our school leadership team as additional deputy head boy and deputy head girl. This is an opportunity for students who have either just joined the school or who have been in our IEC program and may not have had the language or confidence to nominate in Term 1. Congratulations to Eman and Munt who have been elected to these positions. Well done to all of those students who tried out for the role.
Book Week Parade
Last Thursday we held our annual Book Week Parade, with lots of students and teachers getting very creative with their costumes. Thank you to all of those students and teachers who went to the effort to dress up and make it such an outstanding success. Some of our best dressed students (and staff) can be seen in the photos below.
