Reports have gone home today with your child/ren. If you

progress, please make an appointment. This is a time when you

can have any questions or concerns regarding your child’s

education answered. Even though there are no structured

interviews scheduled for Semester 2 reports, please feel

welcome to make an appointment if you feel it necessary.

Choir

I would like to thank and congratulate our school choir for their performances on Saturday night and at the

Finley Regional Care Facility. By all reports they represented our school with pride, which is wonderful to hear.

Thank you to Miss Lewis and Miss Dring for assisting with this group.

Yr6 Graduation

What a wonderful night our Year 6 Graduation ceremony turned out to be last Thursday night. The students

seemed to thoroughly enjoy the ceremony and the disco that followed. I would like to congratulate our Year 6

students on completing primary school. I wish them all well as they commence the next chapter in their school

journey, High School. Thank you to Miss Willis and Miss Harris for organising the event. Also thanks to Tracie

Doohan for creating and cooking the graduation cake.
