Valkstone Primary School

Everyone loves a good before and after shot!

We bet that in the first photo today you wondered where the frog pond actually was? Here it is, all cleared out and waiting to be filled with fresh rainwater from the tanks.

Also, we found 9 frogs and lots of other weird and wonderful creatures! They were all named of course, and returned back into the area as soon as all our wonderful helpers left. If anyone can help us identify the frogs, we’d love to know!

A huge thank you to Lauren and the many wonderful helpers who turned this space into the start of an outdoor classroom. Also thank you to the wonderful helpers who made sure there was a delicious morning tea after everyone’s hard work!

Our frog pond area is very overgrown, so we are looking forward to our Year 2/3/4 families helping out at today’s working bee! Can’t wait to share the ‘after pics’ to show how amazing it will look 🥰

Today we had Nick Staikos MP visit to read a book to some of our very lucky students! He also got to meet Maggie the Wellbeing dog and have a good pat 🐾

Happy International Donut Day from Valkstone Primary School and Carter the Wellbeing Dog (in-training)!

Thank you to all the wonderful community volunteers from our Prep and Year 6 families who came out in the wind today for our Working Bee. Lots of hard work happening and our school is looking beautiful!

Fabulous work Grade 4s! What an impressive effort!
