Today we celebrate Australian Primary Principal's Day and recognise the leadership, dedication and care that our Principal, Maciej (Dr. J), brings to Crystal Brook Primary School each and every day.

Leading a school is about so much more than what happens behind the scenes. It means supporting students to thrive, empowering staff, working alongside families and helping create a school where everyone feels valued, supported and able to succeed.

Thank you, Mach, for your commitment to our school community, your approachable nature, your calm leadership and the genuine care you show for our students, staff and families. Your positive attitude, sense of humour and willingness to always lend a hand, make Crystal Brook Primary School a wonderful place to learn and work.

On behalf of our entire school community, thank you for everything you do. We hope you've had a fantastic Principal's Day—you certainly deserve to be celebrated!

We would also like to make special mention to our Wellbeing Leader – Davina Bellman. At Crystal Brook Primary School, we are truly lucky to have fantastic support from Dav in times when Maciej is absent. Dav is a dedicated member of our site who can cover all situations when required. Dav is supportive, encouraging and has the student’s best interest at heart. Her commitment to our school and our school values is so admirable. So shout out to you Dav, thank you for all you do.

What an awesome morning at Crystal Brook Primary School!

Today we celebrated our Semester 2 SRC Induction Assembly, where we thanked our Semester 1 SRC Representatives for their fantastic leadership and officially welcomed our new Semester 2 representatives. We also welcomed our new Reception students and introduced our new Pastoral Care Worker to our school community.

Following the assembly, students, staff and families came together for our Jeans for Genes Day walk in support of Jaxson and Logan and the Children's Medical Research Institute. Thanks to the generosity of our school community, we raised $233.

A heartfelt thank you to all the families who attended our assembly and joined us on the walk. Your support helped make the morning so special for our students and especially for Jaxson and Logan.

Well done, everyone! 💙👖🚶‍♀️🚶‍♂️ Department for Education, South Australia
