Congratulations to our team of Year 4 to 6 students, who received a ‘Commendation Award’ for their entry in the national Write a Book in a Day competition!

Apologies for the delay. Scholastic Book orders from October have been delivered today. The delay was due to a truck roll over. All orders received have been distributed to your child's classroom and they will take them home today. Please contact Scholastic next week if there are any issues, thank you.
