Swim Safety Program (Term 4 Week 6)
Our Swim Safety Program was a huge success once again this year. Thanks to our trained instructor Mrs Hasselbach and her assistant Mrs Reid who provided the instruction and to the many helpers who made sure that things ran smoothly. The bus driver made sure everyone arrived in time for their lesson too. We are looking forward to running the program again next year to support our goal of doing everything we can to make all our students stay safe in the water.

Yesterday the students in Year 6 did an amazing job of running the annual Year 6 Fun Fair and there was certainly lots of fun happening wherever you looked.
A special thankyou to everyone who worked hard to make the day such a success and to Judy who made sure there were plenty of slushies for all to enjoy.
As a special treat we also welcomed lots of grandparents to join in the fun to thank them for the special role they play in supporting their grandchildren in so many ways.
