Stories and highlights
Classrooms at our school are filled with many special events and memorable moments that make learning exciting and meaningful. From hands-on projects and group activities to celebrations of students’ achievements, these experiences help children grow socially, emotionally, and academically. We also enjoy cultural celebrations that honour the diverse backgrounds of our students, helping everyone learn about and respect different traditions.
Whole school celebrations bring our entire school community together for fun events, assemblies, and festivals that create a strong sense of belonging and school spirit. Teachers encourage curiosity and creativity, creating a warm and supportive space where every child feels inspired to explore, ask questions, and share their ideas. These moments in the classroom and across the school build confidence and a love for learning that students carry with them every day.
A year at our school

Lunar New Year is a special time for many families in our school. Everyone joined in with dragon dancing, shared stories, and enjoyed delicious food. It was a joyful day that brought our whole school community together.
Digital Olympics
Stage 2 and 3 students took part in our Digital Olympics. They worked in teams to solve problems, explore coding, and use digital tools in fun and creative ways. Congratulations to our Digital Olympics team, 1st place!
Learning Beyond the Classroom
Students took part in exciting excursions that helped them learn outside the classroom.
In Term 3, Year 5 visited Canberra for an overnight trip. They explored Parliament House, Questacon, and the Australian War Memorial, learning more about Australia’s history and government.
Year 6 Camp
Year 6 enjoyed a camp at Great Aussie Bush Camp, where they took part in outdoor challenges, team games, and campfire fun. It was a great way to build confidence, friendships, and leadership skills.
PSSA
Students in Stage 2 and Stage 3 represented our school at inter-school Gala Days, playing sports like basketball and rugby league. These events helped students build teamwork, sportsmanship, and confidence while having fun with friends from other schools.
100 Days of Kindergarten
Our Kindergarten students celebrated 100 days of learning with a special day full of fun and smiles. They dressed up, made crafts, and enjoyed activities that marked this exciting milestone in their first year of school.
Colour Run
Year 6 students organised a Colour Run to raise funds for their end-of-year celebrations. The whole school joined in, running through bursts of colour and enjoying music and laughter. It was a fun day that brought everyone together and supported student leadership.
