School Review

Thank you to all who participated in our recent School Review.

The review was very positive for our school and will help shape the future direction of education at Wondall Heights.

We look forward to sharing the review findings and collaboratively developing our next 4 year strategic plan with our school body, in the coming months.

 

100 Days of Prep

Congratulations to our Prep students for completing their first 100 days of Prep! Our Preppies celebrated with a ‘Zero the Hero’ superheroes day and completed lots of activities involving the number 100! It is such a massive achievement and we are so proud of our youngest students!

During Week 1, our school acknowledged NAIDOC Week with classroom and lunch time events for students. The week was culminated with a special parade on Friday which included a Welcome to Country, Smoking Ceremony demonstration by Matt Burns and Dance presentation from Brisbane Bayside State College. It was great to have so many in our community join us for this special event.
