Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you all. It has been a hectic end to the year, with much pride and sadness in seeing our beautiful year six children off from their primary school years. We had a wonderful time at graduation on Wednesday and there were few dry eyes around, we wish them all the best. Thankyou to all who have helped in any way during the school year to support our school. Enjoy the festive season and we look forward to meeting up with you all in the new year. Sampi Jumpa Semuanya.

Our year 5/6 children were able to hear two outstanding motivational speakers this morning (Fri 27/11)at the Lilydale Youth Centre.  Sam Cawthorne and Brad Smith who received  Young Australians of the Year for Tasmania in 2009 and 2010 spoke about adversity and resilience.

Its great to see our shade sail project coming to fruition in the middle courtyard and prep line up area. The sails will be installed in about 2 weeks after the poles have had a chance to become rock solid. They will provide us with much needed additional cooler areas for the summer ahead. Other projects still to come are a refurbishment of the undercover area near the canteen and installation of display areas and repainting in the school foyer. We are still waiting on news of commencement of our main project , our Multi Purpose Center.
