Dear Families, 

Our Grade 4/5 students (and staff) have very much enjoyed a day out at the Werribee Zoo today. With the warm weather I am sure they all felt like they were on an African safari!

Grade 2 Reptile Incursion

Our Grade 2 students loved their visit from the reptiles last Friday at the junior campus. The students were given the opportunity to not only learn about the animals but to touch and hold a turtle, snake, crocodile and a lizard. 

Zooper Dooper Fridays

Our Grade 6 students have done a fabulous job selling Zooper Doopers on Fridays to raise funds to put towards their end of year graduation and Fun Fields excursion. It has also been wonderful to have our senior student leaders at the junior campus on Fridays.

Step Up Day Tuesday 10th December

It is hard to believe that our students will be ‘Stepping Up’ to their 2025 classes very soon to meet their new teacher and classmates. More information will follow closer to the date with an overview of the program for the day. 

End of Semester Reports

Our teachers are into the busy part of the term with report writing. All reports will be live on Compass for families to access from Monday 16th December.

Yours sincerely, 

Christine Cole
