Dear Parents
As we come to the last two weeks of the year it is good that we are finally able to clarify that we can have the Year 6 Graduation. This will be held next Tuesday evening and it is always a highlight of our school year. I take this opportunity to sincerely wish all our graduating class and those families who are leaving us a happy and successful future.
I take this opportunity to congratulate those students who were successful in achieving leadership positions for 2022 and I look forward to working with them.
Congratulations
Earlier this year during NAIDOC Week our students were invited to contribute work, either written or art work to celebrate Koori Kids. I am delighted to announce that Demetria H in Year 6 has been recognized as a State Winner, one of only 25, for her inspiring poem “Back in the Dreamtime” which appears later in this newsletter. This is an outstanding achievement for this young lady and her work will appear in the Prime Ministers NAIDOC Week Final Report. My thanks to the staff who nuture the ATSI program, Ms Angela Schneider and Mr Aldo Rufo for their continuing efforts to include our indigenous students.
