Leadership Investiture
Our Student Leaders’ Investiture Ceremony is scheduled to take place on Monday 24 February at 2:00pm in the KOLA. During this ceremony, our elected School Leaders (School Captains, Sports House Captains, Class Representatives, Band Leaders, Enviro Leaders, Equestrian Leaders, Library Leaders, Peer Support Leaders and Performing Arts Leaders) will receive their leadership badges. We invite you to join us to celebrate this special event. Following the formal investiture ceremony, students and parents are invited to attend an afternoon tea in the KOLA.
NAPLAN TESTING - 12 to 24 March
Earlier in the week Year 3 and 5 parents were emailed some information about the upcoming NAPLAN testing - if for some reason you didn’t receive this information, please contact the school at your convenience.
Parents who are considering withdrawing their child from one or more of the tests are encouraged to contact the school between 17-21 February (we do not receive the Withdrawal forms until this date) - this way they don’t have to sit the Practice Tests.
Final student withdrawals are due no later than Friday 07 March.
