Dear Parents, Guardians & Carers,

Welcome back to Term 3!

As most of you will be aware, our new administration area is now operational. Entry to the office is now at the left-hand side of the drop-off / car park area. Student entry and exit from the drop-off zone is still through Gate B. Our school is looking lovely and fresh with our beautiful new spaces and landscaping and the oval currently nice and green. Our new STEM room is now operating with our Prep, Year 1 and Year 2 students participating in STEM sessions with Mrs Collins this semester while our Year 3 – 6 students will be having Performing Arts with Ms Grumley.

As always, we have a busy term ahead with Year 6 camp, Book Week and many sporting activities.

Last week, four of our students – Jack Marino, Aaliyah Judilla, Tahnee Judilla and Jerzey Podmore -  competed in the State Cross Country Championships, an awesome achievement! On Wednesday this week our senior school hockey team travelled to Sale to compete in the Regional Winter Sports where they came runners-up. We are so proud of the way in which our students have represented  the school at these events.

Foundation Enrolments for 2024 have now closed with offers expected to be sent out within the next couple of weeks.

On a personal note, I would like to thank all the students, parents and family members who reached out to wish me well on my travels to Jerusalem or who have asked me about my trip on my return. It was an amazing experience, and I feel so fortunate to have been given this opportunity. I am looking forward to sharing more of my experiences with the students and community over the coming weeks.

While Michelle is away on her well-deserved long service leave, Camille as Acting Deputy Principal and myself as Acting Principal are both excited to continue to lead the school and hopefully keep everything running smoothly. Please don’t hesitate to contact us at the school at any time with any queries or concerns.

Warm regards,

Alison
