Dear Parents and Caregivers,

Come and Try Day was an absolute blast!

We had so much fun trying out four different sports, from rugby to cricket, all while learning from adults and other year 6 school leaders. It was a super hot day, but that didn’t stop us from giving it our all and having a great time! Check out the photos below to see all the action!

Hi All,

It was wonderful to see our classroom today with several traditional clothing outfits. Please see below for photos.
