On some other exciting news, our new preps for 2019

start transition this week on Thursday 8th Nov. This is

always an exciting time of the year as we see the next

generation of students come through and prepare for

their first year at school. Some children are siblings

and are well versed in the way school runs, the play

grounds, classrooms and teachers and for some it is

their and their families first experience with the

schooling system. We welcome them all and look

forward to seeing everyone tomorrow.

Have a great weekend,

Deb Keating

Principal

Principals Report

Hello everyone,

I hope you all enjoyed your mid term break and had

some time to either get away and relax or stay home

and catch up on things. For those of you who may

have had a bet on The Melbourne Cup, I hope you

came out with a win or two. It is a lovely time of the

year, with the days becoming longer to allow us and

the kids to get outside for longer.

This weekend was the Whittlesea Show and our

students have done very well with their art and

writing pieces. This year was the first year we have

entered our media art pieces and the judges love

what we do with our students, coming first, and two

third placings in the Primary School Photography

section. Our Media Arts program exposes our

students to such a modern form of art, and develops

very modern skills in the manipulation and

imaginative digital world. Another outstanding result

was in the Primary School 3D model section where

students created something a little different,

sculpturing with foil and students again coming first,

two second and two third placings. I love teaching

art to our students because each and every lesson I

am amazed at their skill, talent and creativeness. It’s

such an exciting subject to teach. Each student

getting the same brief, yet their end art work can be

so unique!

Congratulations to all students who entered art work

or writing pieces! The following is a list of award

winners this year.

We will be presenting our ribbon and award winners

with their prizes at Gudjinna this Monday 12th

Nov.

Please come along and celebrate with us!
