Welcome back to Term 3!

Year 7 Zoo Excursion

Uniform Reminder

Ashley O'Dowd
Junior Sub School Coordinator

Welcome back to Term 3! 

We hope all our students and families enjoyed a restful and enjoyable break and are feeling refreshed for the exciting term ahead.

As we begin the new semester, we encourage all families to take some time to read through their child's Semester 1 report. These reports provide valuable information about your child's learning, achievements and areas for future growth. If you have any questions or would like to discuss your child's progress further, we encourage you to book a Parent-Teacher Interview. Working together helps ensure every student is supported to achieve their best.

Year 7 Zoo Excursion

Our Year 7 students are looking forward to their upcoming zoo excursion in Week 8. This exciting learning experience will provide students with the opportunity to explore wildlife, conservation and habitats while supporting their classroom learning.

If you have not already done so, please ensure your child's permission form is completed and returned by the due date. Prompt return of permission forms will help us finalise arrangements and ensure all students can participate.
