Community update #3.7

Father's Day/ Special Friends Year 6 breakfast zoom photos

Thank you to the Year 6 students, P&F, Class Reps, teachers and all parents who helped to make this year's annual celebration a wonderful event despite lockdown.

Thanks to the P&F for the wonderful Father's Day/ Special Friend's Day Gift Packs for the whole school.

We wish all dads, pas and pals a special celebration this weekend.




Book Week

Next week we will celebrate Book Week all week. The children will log onto their regular zoom at 9am, then do Book Week activities from 12.10pm.

There will be no small groups running next week.

Just a reminder that students are to remain on mute for the full sesssion, and refrain from using the chat function, or any other onscreen function. Students must be logged in with their own name. Children who do not adhere to our school protocols will be removed from the zoom.

We really look forward to having a different kind of a week, and especially can't wait to see your Book Week Dress-ups on Monday!
