Today, K-2 enjoyed a visit from Sharon from Port Stephens Koala Hospital as part of Save the Koala month! K-2 have been learning all about koalas and how to protect their future. Students have completed projects at home and are raising funds to adopt koalas through the Port Stephens Koala Hospital. How exciting! Do you love koalas?

This morning saw our students and their dads come together to enjoy breakfast and games in the beautiful morning sunshine. It was fantastic to see lots of granddads too!
Bacon and egg rolls were enjoyed, as well as lots of fun with games and sports.
Shout out to our P & C who organised the breakfast for everyone!
