2024 

The school is now taking enrolments for 2024 Kindergarten students. If you know anyone who would like a guided tour of the school, please ask them to contact the office. Our next parent information session is on  Wednesday 9 August. This will be followed by a long transition program for the future jarmbies.

Construction

The construction of the boundary safety fence has commenced. The fence will ensure all students are safe at school and that there are no univited people on the school grounds.

Musica Viva

Next Tuesday the students will have the opportunity to listen to live musicians when the ensemble Colours of Home visit our school. The students have been participating in musical activities related to colour and mood to prepare for the performance.

Colours of Home invites students into the vibrant world of oboist Celia Craig, who experiences Chromesthesia - where sound evokes an involuntary experience of colour. Celia joins forces with guitarist Caspar Hawksley to deepen students’ understanding of music through colour and mood. This exciting combination features a rich musical palette inspired by landscapes and personal connections to place, giving students the tools to create music based on their own unique worldview.

Multicultural Perspectives Public Speaking

Students in Years 2-6 will present their speech next Tuesday. Two students from Years 3-4 and Years 5-6 will be selected to compete in the local final at Howlong PS on Thursday 8 June.

Parent-teacher interviews

Parents are invited to contact the class teacher at any time during the year to organsie a parent-teacher interview. In addiiton, teachers may contact parents and request an interview.

SRC and sports captain initiatives

The SRC students and sports captains have instigated 2 great initiatives at school:

Bring Your Wheels to School Day

• each Thursday the students are invited to bring their bikes, scooters, roller blades etc (including all safety equipment) to ride at lunchtime. The students create a course for the riders. It is wonderful to see so many participants each week.

Sport time lunch games

• each Friday the sports captains will organise a game or sport for any students to participate in during lunchtime.

Moodamoot (farewell)
