Message from the Principal

Plan what equipment you need and be organised, ready to

work or play

Dear Parents and Carers

Yaama Maliyaa (Hello friends)What a great Cross Country we had on Friday. We are so proud of all the children who participated and gave it their best shot. Congratulations to the many students who made it through to the next level. You can see the photos on our Facebook and website pages

This week we have some exciting news. Every couple of weeks I will be inviting a nominated student to come and be a “Principal for a Session”. We are always looking to provide leadership opportunities for our students and this is a fun way to encourage our students to think about their leadership. These students will be ‘helping’ me lead as a principal for a short amount of time during a day. This week our first “Principal” will be one of our Kindy students – Ashton Allan. Mr Allan will be working with me on Wednesday. Stay tuned for his report next week!
