We have an exciting term planned, starting with our "50 Days of Celebration"! Each day, we will celebrate students who consistently show our school values and do the right thing at the right time. Students recognised will be entered into a daily prize draw.

Week 1 Daily Celebration Schedule

Monday – Correct Uniform (Respect)
Tuesday – Wearing a Hat Outside (Respect)
Wednesday – On-Time Arrival (Learning)
Thursday – Attending Today (Learning)
Friday – Tidiest Cloak Bay (Learning)

Congratulations to the students randomly selected for wearing the correct uniform today! They had a great game of dodgeball after lunch with Mr Kalaam and Mr Clear.

What a great start to the term!
