Dougie’s Den
It has been fantastic to see our Year 3-6 students engaging in Dougie’s Den, our newest play area for students. Dougie’s Den is a space where students are able to play using their own imagination to build, create and explore different materials. Dougie’s Den does need some more items to keep our busy students being creative. Parents, if you have any of the following items could you kindly bring them to the office?
P&C Executive
On behalf of our school community, we thank our P&C committee for their contributions in 2023. 2023 was a significantly successful year for our P&C which has seen the school community supported with different events, fundraisers and donations to our school. On 12 March, the Annual General Meeting was held and we thanked the outgoing executive, whilst electing positions for 2024. I am pleased to announce the 2024 elected members:
Executive Committee
President: Martin Watchorn
Vice President: Sam Aitchison
Secretary: Matthew Rowan
Treasurer: Wendy Willis
Please support our P&C- it is led by volunteers to enrich our school environment for all children and families.
Harmony Week
Harmony Week is the celebration that recognises our diversity and brings together Australians from all different backgrounds. This year Harmony Week is celebrated 18-24 March 2024.
It’s about inclusiveness, respect and a sense of belonging for everyone.
We invite our school community to wear an ORANGE shirt or accessory on Friday 22 March.
Why orange? Orange is the colour chosen to represent Harmony Week. Traditionally, orange signifies social communication and meaningful conversations. It also relates to the freedom of ideas and encouragement of mutual respect. Australians can choose to wear something orange during Harmony Week to show their support for cultural diversity and an inclusive Australia.
