This year is an exciting year for us as we begin another stage in our building project. This project will see the construction of 3 new classrooms, a learning support area, a new prep building, a new shaded area and a new playground for our younger students.
We also offer Out of Hours school care for busy working parents.

This week we farewell Di Bellert who died of cancer on Monday night. Di has been a generous, loving and inspirational member of this school community since 1999. She represented the aspirations of our school community. She will be sadly missed but never forgotten. On Tuesday afternoon as a staff we gathered to pray for Di and her family and to share our thoughts and memories. I would like to share with you a poem written by Lorraine Knott our Library Co-ordinator which captured Di’s spirit and grace.
A Place To Rest
God looked down on your body,
So tired from hanging on,
From a life that was full of pain,
And wanted you with him.
So he took away the air you breathe,
And gave you what was best,
A place to be at peace,
A final place to rest.
May she rest in the peace of God. Please keep Di’s husband Ross and her sons Glen and Shane, their family and friends in your prayers.
