Stories and highlights

2026 ANZAC Service

Each year, our staff, students, and wider community come together to commemorate and reflect on the courage, sacrifice, and service of the men and women who have served, and continue to serve, our country.

This year, we were privileged to hear from our guest speaker, Major Mitchell List, whose address provided a meaningful and personal reflection on service and remembrance. We also heard from our student leaders and Defence students, who shared readings highlighting the history, sacrifice, and enduring legacy of the ANZACs.

By taking time to reflect and remember, we honour those who have served and ensure that the stories, values, and spirit of the ANZACs continue to inspire future generations.

Deadly Storytelling Aboriginal Excursion

Our K–6 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students recently participated in a cultural and environmental learning excursion to GREEC at Chipping Norton. Through a range of hands-on activities, students connected with Country, explored native flora and fauna, created nature-inspired artworks and jewellery, and met several Australian reptiles. The experience provided valuable opportunities for learning, creativity and cultural connection, inspiring students to reflect on and share their experiences through writing back at school.

Stage 2 Excursion - Hyde Park Barracks

Year 4 students recently participated in an educational excursion to Hyde Park Barracks and the Royal Botanic Gardens. Students enthusiastically explored historical artefacts and learned about the experiences of early convicts upon their arrival at Farm Cove. The excursion provided a valuable opportunity to deepen their understanding of Australia's colonial history through engaging, hands-on learning in historically significant locations.

K-2 Easter Hat Parade

Earlier this year, our K–2 students lit up the playground with their colourful and imaginative Easter-themed hats. From bright bunny ears to baskets brimming with eggs, each creation showcased the wonderful creativity and effort of our students. We were delighted to welcome many parents, grandparents, and friends who joined us to cheer on the parade, making it a joyful celebration for our whole school community.
This event is definitely a highlight on our calendar each year for our K-2 students!

Book Week Character Parade

Each year our school gathers to celebrate our love of books and reading at our annual Book Week Character Parade. We welcome members of our community for the parade and invite students and parents to purchase a new book from our book fair.

Students (and teachers!) dressed up in the most amazing and creative costumes inspired by their favourite books. From brave adventurers and magical creatures to superheroes and classic storybook characters, our parade was filled with colour, excitement, and imagination!
