Time for a photo with a gorilla.
Recently 84 very excited Kindergarten students and 13 brave parent helpers went to Taronga Zoo as a part of their learning for the unit ‘What’s Alive’.
We had a glorious sunny day that allowed us to explore the zoo to its full capacity. We had clear views of the Harbour Bridge and the Opera House, along with many of the city buildings.
We enjoyed the seal show and the bird show as well as many exciting Zookeeper talks such as the reptiles and the gorillas. We did our best to see everyone’s favourite animals. The Meerkats were certainly a hit!
Another group of students enjoying the zoo.
At the end of the day, we all scrambled back on to the bus for a nice long and restful trip home - with many little angels falling asleep on the way home.
A huge ‘Thank You’ to all of the people who helped out to organise and help the day run smoothly.

Year 6 have been learning about the difference between figurative and abstract art. They created some amazing artworks, showing both real-life images and creative, imaginative designs. Other grades loved visiting the exhibition and were so impressed by the creativity on display. Well done, Year 6!

A big well done to our students who have been elected by their peers to join the Student Representative Council (SRC) this semester. Each of these students was chosen for a variety of reasons—whether it be their kindness, positive attitude, responsibility, willingness to help others, or the way they lead by example. We can’t wait to see the great ideas and leadership you bring this semester!

Yesterday we celebrated a very special group of students at our traditional 'Student of the Term' Assembly (Principal's award), followed by a lovely morning tea with Mr Calabria and Mr Cauchi. Each of these students were chosen by their teachers for their consistent effort, kindness, and positive attitude throughout the term. They are quiet achievers, hard workers, and wonderful role models for their peers. It was a joy to acknowledge and celebrate their dedication — we are so proud of them!
