Welcome to 2023

31 Jan 2023

Dear All

I hope everyone has had a relaxing break over summer and are ready to face all the excitement that a new school year brings.  It has been fantastic to see our students and families on-site over these past two assessment days but I am bursting with energy to have the school year start tomorrow.

The first day is always a roller-coaster.  Some parents will shed tears because their baby starts primary school but for others the tears will be for a child starting Year 6.  Other parents will be filled with joy as they leave the car park with an empty car and six hours of peace and quiet.  To help calm your nerves and emotions we have invited a local coffee truck to be on-site in the morning so please pack a few gold coins - Feel free to hang around and have a chat with other parents while you enjoy your coffee, or maybe treat yourself to a takeaway to take with you on your way to work.

A few reminders for tomorrow

Bell Times:

8.30am Supervision starts - Access to the school yard via the Student Access Electric Doors

8.45am Classrooms Open

9.00am School Day Starts

Uniform:

Some classes have Wednesday as a Sports Uniform Day.  For the first day it is fine for students for students to wear either summer or sports.  If you are chasing the perfect Day 1 Family Photo it is fine to put everyone in their full Summer Uniform.

Please remember your school hat!

Can I take the opportunity to thank all the staff and our various contractors who have worked hard over the past few weeks preparing for the start of the school year.  Their individual and collective efforts have not gone unnoticed.

I wish everyone a terrific year ahead and as a school community we look forward to welcoming all our new students, staff and families.

I look forward to working with your family across the year.

Yours,

Dave Cooper

Sports Morning

12 Dec 2022

Due to the forecast of rain the team presenting our sports activity this morning have moved the activity indoors.  This means that the classes will rotate through the activities in the gym rather than have a whole school activity outside.  This will impact families intending to stay and participate as classes will have different times across the morning and visitors will not fit in the Gym.  We apologise for the weather gods not cooperating with us today...or year.

This afternoon's assembly and performance will still go ahead as scheduled.

Have a great day and enjoy this last busy week of the school year.
