Olympic Prayer

From the Principal

Dear parents and carers,

After a sensational opening ceremony, it was great to finally see our Olympic athletes in action over the weekend and to see local girl, Grace Brown winning gold. There will be many late nights over the next two weeks. Students are engaged in learning about the many historic and contemporary facets of the Olympics.
