Our Prayer
From the Principal
Dear parents, carers and community members,
We come to our final week of the school year and we are celebrating all of the achievements of 2022. As a school, we would like to thank our families and community members for their care and support this year to make it an amazing year of fun and learning across the school. I would like to thank our dedicated staff who have worked tirelessly to overcome some challenging circumstances to still provide great opportunities for growth and learning for the children. Thank you to our school leaders who have supported me greatly settling into the role of principal this year. We would like to wish all our families and students a peaceful and family-filled Christmas and school holidays.
School Disco
The SRC school 'disco' last Friday was a wonderful celebration with children busting their moves to some new music and some old classics. Thank you to all the Grade 6 students who have given of their time all year to build the SRC into a strong voice for the students in our school.
