Governing Council held its inaugural Trivia Night fundraiser on Saturday 22 June and it was a wonderful success.  The final amount raised is anticipated to be over $2200 and while this is a step in the right direction for our Nature Play space, the value in our community spirit and relationships is immeasurable. Thank you to everyone who supported us with donations of goods, money and time. A big thank you to Woodcroft College for the use of their venue; to Rick, Jade, Christine, Dannii and Anna, with Governing Council for their work on and leading up to the night, and to Belinda, Helen, Kylie and Trish for their huge behind the scenes efforts.  It is said that it takes a village to raise a child, it also takes a village to run a Trivia Night.  Can't wait for next year!

The results of our External School Review have been published and the report is now available to read through our school website. Our next step is to develop a School Vision which is a clear statement of what the school is trying to achieve so that everyone can work together. The vision needs to capture the aims of our school in its particular context, guide and inform planning, and help to develop a common language for effective communication. There will be opportunities for staff, students and families to contribute their thoughts during this development process throughout Term 3. Dates will be published through the newsletter, Schoolzine App notifications and Facebook.

The school is saying a reluctant but temporary goodbye to our Deputy Principal, Mrs. Belinda Finlay -Smith as she prepares for the birth of her second child.  The school is in the process of appointing a replacement Deputy Principal and will share the details once the position is confirmed.  We wish Belinda, Justin and Mitchell much joy and happiness and look forward to visits after their new addition arrives.

Please stay safe and enjoy the term break with loved ones. Term 3 promises to bring improved weather and plenty of opportunities for learning.
