Our Prep students are getting ready to celebrate a very special milestone – 100 Days of School on Monday 27 July!

We can't wait to see our amazing Preps dressed in their best 100-themed outfits. Whether it's a look from 100 years ago or something creative inspired by the number 100, we know they'll look fantastic! 👵🕺💯
Please head onto Sentral to give permission!
IF you need some inspo, here is some pictures of our last year Preps!! 🌠

School Update – Thursday 23 July 📣

Due to the Australian Education Union (AEU) statewide 24-hour stop work on Thursday 23 July, a number of our staff will be participating. As a result, we are unable to operate our usual school program for all students.

Students in the following classes are not required to attend school:
Prep A, Prep B, 1A, 1B, 1C, 2C, 2D, 3A, 3B, 3C, 3D, 4B, 5A, 5C, 5D, 6A and 6B.

The following classes will attend school as normal:
2A, 2B, 4A, 4C, 5B, 6C and 6D.

If this causes difficulties for your family, particularly if you are a critical services worker, please contact the school by 4:00pm Wednesday 22 July.

Thank you for your understanding and support.

*Fence and drop off update for Monday*

There has been a lot of work happening over the holidays. Please be aware that conditions have changed around the school and take extra care.

The fencing is still being installed and should be almost completed by Monday. Please use the pedestrian access points and walk along the footpaths.

A team of volunteers helped to paint lines on our temporary drop off area. This will be accessed via Edwards road.
The previous drop off area at the roundabout in front of the office is NOT in use.
Please pre-plan any changes to your usual school drop off routines prior to Monday.

The Edwards road drop off area is only to be used until 8:45, at which time class starts. Students who arrive after 8:45 will need to be dropped off near the oval and sign in at the office.

More video instructions will be provided Friday and via Sentral.

A big thank you to Lizzie, Aimee, Mrs Schulz, Mr Saker, Miss Taylor, Miss Moorhead and Micka for helping Miss Ellis with the painting today to make the area safe.

📣 Reminder for Families! 📣

Just a friendly reminder that tomorrow, Friday 26/06/2026, is an early finish day with students finishing at 2:00pm ⏰

We will also be holding our school assembly at 1:30pm 🎉

Please make sure pick-up arrangements are in place. Thank you for your support! 😊
