Our first Bedtime Stories Night was a great success!
Families and children enjoyed wonderful stories, collected glow sticks, raced around the school grounds finding hidden book covers, and finished with a Milo and bikkie.
And the best part? Coming to school in pyjamas!
A huge thank you to our amazing staff for giving their extra time to make this special night possible. And to the families for supporting such a fun night. ❤️

These lunches have been about so much more than food. They’ve given us a lovely opportunity to sit together, share a meal and connect as a school community and the children have certainly enjoyed every bite!

We are incredibly grateful for the generosity and support of the Mena Creek Hotel

Playgroup Fun!
What a wonderful day of play, creativity and connection!
The children had so much fun making their very own dinosaur feet, followed by plenty of sandpit adventures and slide fun!
Thank you to Ms Za and all our wonderful families for making playgroup such a fun and welcoming place for everyone!
Join us every Friday from 8:45 to 10:45am.

BOOK WEEK FUN! Our school was filled with favourite book characters as our children dressed up, listened to stories, danced their way around the school and celebrated the joy of books together.

We also worked together to create our very own “Symphony of Stories” wall. Thanks to Ms H for leading the day for us all.

A huge thank you to our families for helping with costumes and joining in the Book Week fun. We loved seeing the creativity, excitement and smiles throughout the day!

There’s nothing quite like seeing a school come alive through stories!

We are so sorry! Unfortunately, with a few of our staff feeling unwell, we need to postpone our Bedtime Stories evening on Wednesday night, August 26. We know the children were looking forward to putting on their PJs and coming along for stories, milo and biscuits. We were looking forward to it too! We hope to reschedule Bedtime Stories as soon as everyone is feeling better and will let you know the new date. Thank you so much for your understanding.

But . . . our Book Character Day is still happening on Thursday, August 27! We can’t wait to see what you dress up as.

Groovy vibes at Dance Club!
A huge thank you to our wonderful Wellbeing Guidance Officer, Ms D, for running Lunch Time Dance Club every fortnight!
Our students have an absolute blast dancing, laughing and having fun together. It’s such a wonderful way to get moving, build confidence and spread a little joy!
We love seeing those happy faces and groovy moves!

Ahoy mateys! Pirates at Playgroup!

We had 17 special humans at playgroup this week, and what an adventure we had!
We dressed up as pirates, built tall towers, listened to stories, danced, played and explored.
So much learning, laughter and connection happening through play.
Thanks Ms Za for being such a wonderful facilitator and connector!

Until our next adventure!
