Principal's Report

Welcome to Term 2. The ANZAC Assembly was held Friday, 23rd of April and I would like to acknowledge the respect shown by students, especially the minute silence. The wreath (laid on Sunday at the Devonport RSL by the Student Council Representatives) was placed at the front of the stage.  Mitchell from 4/5 Sherriff played the last post on the trumpet; outstanding! The 5/6 Welling class recited “In Flanders Field” and the 4/5 Sherriff class shared poppy artwork. The ANZAC assembly was an acknowledgement of those who fought for our country.

Last Friday we farewelled Mrs Tracey Crowther who returned to her home state of South Australia.  We wish Mrs Crowther all the best.

Welcome to Ms Lisa Grundy who has been appointed to the 2/3 class.  A very quick transition with Ms Grundy starting yesterday. 2/3C will now be known as 2/3G.

The Thomas Street front of the school and car park fencing is being upgraded. The car park has a new paling fence back from the original fences; large shrubs will be planted. The chosen plants will grow to cover the fence (please note the external school cameras have clear coverage of the carpark and play area). Throughout the term, maintenance of lots of ‘little’ things will be done around the school grounds and buildings. As one student commented yesterday ‘it feels like a new school’ regarding the fence.
