Issue 11 - 03/07/2026

Thank you to all of our parents and carers who took the time to attend Parent-Teacher Interviews last week and discuss your child's learning and progress. These conversations are one of the most valuable opportunities we have to strengthen the partnership between home and school, and we greatly appreciate your time and engagement.

A reminder that communication doesn't stop at interview time. If you would like to discuss your child's learning, wellbeing or progress at any stage throughout the term, please don't hesitate to contact your child's teacher to arrange a suitable time to meet or chat.

Student Reports

A reminder that Semester 1 Student Reports will be emailed to families today.

If you require a duplicate copy of your child's report and have not received one, please contact the Front Office and we will be happy to assist.

P&C Trivia Night

It was wonderful to see our P&C Fundraising Committee come together on Tuesday evening to continue planning for this year's Trivia Night, which will be held later next term.

Last year's event was one of the highlights of the school year, bringing together families, staff and the wider community for a fantastic night of fun and fundraising. Be sure to keep an eye out for further details in the coming weeks and, once tickets are released, get in quickly they're sure to sell fast!

Happy and Safe School Holidays

As we wrap up another fantastic term, I would like to thank our students, families and staff for their continued support throughout the term.

I hope the school holidays provide an opportunity to relax, recharge and spend quality time with family and friends. Stay Warm!!!

We look forward to welcoming everyone back for Term 3, which begins on Tuesday 21 July.
