Principal's report - Term 1 Week 11

Dear families,

Office renovation

Our office renovation to increase space for the administration area is nearing completion. We should have our lovely new space ready for the community to enjoy early next term. 

School photo day

Thank you to all families for ensuring that children were punctual and dressed in full school uniform for our school photos. The photos were taken efficiently and easily and should be ready for distribution to families next term.

I hope all families who celebrated Easter last week had a fabulous time. I also wish all families who are currently celebrating Eid, a fun, happy and joyful time with loved ones.
