Welcome to the 2025 school year!

It has been wonderful to see how well the children have settled into the new school year. We have received many compliments from both new and returning families about how smoothly the start of the year has been. I especially thank the students for their understanding, patience, and flexibility regarding the eight-day delay to the opening of the sport court. Despite this, the children and staff have adapted wonderfully and enjoyed playing and learning in alternative spaces. The contractors apologise for any inconvenience caused to the children, staff, and families.

As we journey through 2025, let us remember that this year marks our school’s centenary. We have a variety of activities and events planned for throughout the year to celebrate this significant milestone. Keep an eye on SZapp and the school calendar for announcements about opportunities to participate in the centenary celebrations.

With the hot weather continuing, please remember to stay cool and hydrated. We look set to enjoy some more temperate weather in the coming days and the forecast looks great for our first Parent Engagement Group (PEG) event on Saturday - our Community BBQ and Spit roast evening at Mortlock Oval. Bookings are still open on Qkr! until Thursday. Thank you to the team of parent volunteers and Carol Jarell for their outstanding planning and organisational skills in bringing this event together. It is shaping up to be a fun-filled family afternoon.

Go well,
Dee-anne Peters
Principal
