Mawson Lakes School consists of an Early Years campus on Site East (birth to 8 years of age), and a Primary campus (8 to 12 years of age) on Site West.
We have a unique feature being 'Dry' creek which runs between the two sites. The school began operating in January 2000, with 53 students and six staff, in shared facilities within the University of SA. Stage 1 of the school was completed in July 2003 and accommodated 475 students (R-7), 80 preschool children and 40 staff. The construction of Stage 2 of the Mawson Lakes School was completed in Jul

It is with deep regret we have decided to cancel todays Sports Day. Update weather forecast predict high winds of 30-31km per hour all day, with wind gusts of 52-54km per hour. This is not considered safe for our children to run and play in, not for spectator, staff and volunteer safety.
Children can still come to school in their team colours and are welcome to bring some money to buy items from the bake sale which will be available in our Mobara rooms.
Children will be in classes for the day. Teachers will modify the day so children are engaged in other fun end of term learning activities. Dismissal for the end of term will remain at 2pm. Thank you for your understanding.
Canteen menu will proceed as normal with all preordered lunches still being provided. Thankfully this is not impacted by weather.
At this stage, another date is yet to be scheduled.
Kind regards

Mawson Lakes School community -
Please share this with your loved ones, friends and acquaintances. If we can make attending the correct Early Voting Centres easier, especially for the older population, that would be a great start. Hopefully then, they will not be angry & distressed about not being in the correct spot ❤️🩹
