Principal Talk with Mrs Lowe
End of Term
This is our last newsletter for the term. Congratulations to all of our dedicated and hardworking students who have put in another huge effort this term to develop their skills across many Key Learning Areas. Thank you to our wonderfully supportive parent body and to the teachers for your hard work and dedication.
Next term we welcome Mrs Sue Branson back from Long Service Leave. I would like to thank Mrs Linda Walsh for teaching Year Two in Mrs Branson's absence. Mrs Walsh has worked very hard to ensure that Year Two were well looked after and continuing positively along their learning journey.
Next term we farewell Mrs Jenny McCarthy on Long Service Leave. We hope that Mrs McCarthy enjoys her well-deserved break.
I hope you have a happy and safe holiday break and I look forward to seeing the students back on Tuesday 23 July.
