stage 3 camp

Thank you to all our families for your support and trust in allowing your child to take part in our overnight excursion. These experiences give students the chance to learn in new environments, develop independence and confidence, and strengthen friendships and teamwork outside the classroom.

Departure on Monday 27th October - Students need to be at school by 7:15am on Monday 27th October so rolls can be marked before departure at 7:30am sharp. We will be meeting in the cola before boarding the bus.

Shell Cove Marina Barrack Heights Mural

Today, alongside local artist Courtney Beaton, 20 of our Stage 2 students created an artwork panel on the Shell Cove Marina Walk.

To link with BHPS, the artwork that the students created with Courtney features an Octopus, just like the sensitive octopus from Grow Your Mind.
