Boys playing with lego and having fun building.
Kindergarten have had a great start to their first weeks of school.
Some of the activities we have been doing include reading stories, making numbers with counters and learning some new prayers. Kindergarten students have enjoyed meeting new friends and their teachers.
We are looking forward to watching the students grow and learn throughout the year and all those beyond while at OLA. We welcome all the new families into our wonderful school community.
Here are the thoughts of two kindergarten students about what they have enjoyed about their first week.
I liked to play with the Lego.

Holiday time means extra reading time- the school holidays are the perfect chance for our OLA readers to make progress on the Premier’s Reading Challenge! There's not long to go until it closes. With a little extra time to unwind and get lost in a book, it’s a great opportunity to tick off a few more titles from your list. We love seeing these familiar faces soaking up quiet reading moments these holidays- proof that reading can happen anywhere, anytime. We hope these photos make you smile! At OLA, we 'READ TO SUCCEED'!

Year 2 finished the term with a fantastic HSIE excursion to Longneck Lagoon EEC. They learnt about the ways people connect to and care for places, water environments, and each other, using geographical information. It was so much fun!! Thank you to our Year 2 teachers for organising this, and our wonderful parent helpers who joined us and helped on the day!

Today we proudly acknowledged our new Semester 2 SRC members- students chosen by their peers to represent their classes with responsibility and pride. One of the highlights was seeing families join their children on stage as badges were presented. The smiles and pride on every face said it all. Congratulations to our Semester 2 SRC Team!
