Dear mums, dads, carers and colleagues

The end of last week was enormous and as a result, the distribution of the school newsletter was deferred for the weekend.  I encourage you to read on for information about the week's events and the galleries of photos that accompany the reports.  Also included later in this issue is information on 2023 booklists, SRS and App lists.  

Colour Splatacular

This was an incredible day.  Messy and fun!  It was the culmination of weeks of work and it was incredibly successful.  My appreciation for this opportunity extends to so many people - all of whom contributed in a way to make the experience better for our children.  Our staff, many of whom arrived at 3:30am, cooked, served and were happy to get messy with their students across the day.  Our families supported the event with their considerable financial generosity once again, and came along to watch as Channel 9 broadcast from the school.  And of course, our P&C ladies.  Their commitment across the past 5 months has been extraordinary and I was delighted that the event ran so well for them.  Well done!

Time 2 Shine concert

Congratulations to the students and staff who presented at the Time 2 Shine concert this week.  I was incredibly proud of each of the performers and just as grateful to the staff for the outstanding work they have done this year.  Thank you to all of the families who have supported our music program this year.

School number facts competition

A few nerves were revealed at this Thursday’s school wide Mathletics Live & Number Facts competition finals. Thank you to all students who participated on the day. The challenge was fierce as the top 25 students in each year level battled it out to become the top 4-point scorers. They then battled in the grand final round to become the number facts year level champion. Congratulations to the top 4 point-scorers from each year level and the overall year level champions:

     

Kind regards
