Aussie of the Month recognises personal endeavour, achievement and contribution to the community and reflects some of the values we share as Australians, such as fair go, mateship, respect and inclusion.

It is a primary school recognition program, that's been running for more than 20 years and is delivered by the same network that presents the Australian of the Year Awards.

Aussie of the Month reflects school values and encourages:

• an appreciation of the diversity and depth of personal contribution
• achievement possible within your school
• concern and consideration for all members of the school community

Each month, staff nominate students as candidates Aussie of the Month and then a student is elected to receive this special award to celebrate their commitment to the values we embrace at our school. The student to receive this award for the month of November is Isabelle C from Ms Stanley's Year 4/5 class.

Isabelle received our Aussie of the Month award for: showing determination and resilience when she broke her shoulder.  Isabelle learnt to write with her left hand and never gave up on a task.  She used her sense of humour to get through challenging times.
