Anzac Ceremony

On Tuesday 29th April, our school community commemorated the men and women who have served Australia and New Zealand in the Defence Forces.  Our Anzac Ceremony is a time for students to reflect beyond the anniversary of the landing of troupes on Gallipoli shores in 1915.  It is a time for the people of a community to gather together to recognise and remember the sacrifices made by all those who have served Australia and New Zealand in times of conflict and those who currently serve in the defence forces.  We remember with pride, their courage, compassion, and comradeship. 

Thank you to our wonderful music specialist, Miss Dupond for leading our choir and students in singing ‘Green Hills of Albany’.  Congratulations also to our soloists who sang so beautifully.  ‘The Green Hills of Albany’ was written to commemorate the Anzacs.  In 1914, the largest gathering of ships ever seen in Australian waters occurred at Albany in Western Australia.  The men who sailed from there were bound for Gallipoli and an unknown fate.

Mother’s Day Pamper Morning

It was wonderful to see our mums, grandmothers, carers being celebrated across the school in the lead up to Mother’s Day.  I hope you all had a lovely day.  Below are some pictures from our early childhood classes Mother’s Day Pamper morning.  We saw some very artistic portraits and colourful nails.

Have a  lovely week.

Kind regards,
