Congratulations
Dear Families,
It seems like only last week that I was welcoming everyone
back to term 3, now I am wishing everyone a relaxing and fun break
over the next 2 weeks.
We have had a wonderful term with lots of things happening.
The students have worked so hard towards all the projects,
concert, public speaking, sports and class work. Congratulations and
well done.

2014 Enrolments
Staff planning for 2014
takes place during term 3 each
year. For the school to be able
to plan for your children to
have the best of opportunities,
it is extremely important we
have all Prep and new
enrolment forms returned to
the office.
Any families are invited
to visit the school to have a
look around and see the great
work that is being done. Whilst
we will do our best to
accommodate impromptu
visits, an appointment will just
guarantee that someone is
available to answer your
questions and spend the time
with you that you deserve.
Enrolment packages
can be collected from the
school office.

Principal.
