Fraser Victorious!

Fraser claimed their first Cross Country title in many years at the 2017 Carnival. On a day made for Cross Country all of our students ran to the best of their ability for themselves and their houses.
It what was an extremely close contest Fraser only won by only 15 points 186 – 171. Some highlights included our twins Elva and Clive both winning their races and all three Kingsleys taking out theirs.

Swimming Program a Success Once Again
As teachers it is a pleasure to watch the way BJ and Kim interact with and get the best out of each and every student. Every year we are thrilled at the amount of progress the kids make in BJ’s swimming lessons. A big thank you to the Sports Club for use of the bus.
Silver Coin Trail
We will be making a silver coin trail on Thursday May 4. So bring in your silver coins and help us raise money for the SES.
Working Bee
There will be a working bee at the school’s kitchen garden from 9-11am on Saturday May 20 to lay the pavers for the giant chessboard feature that is the latest addition to the garden. We will also be making sure that the garden is looking its best for the open morning on Friday May 26 so if anyone could bring along their trailer to take away any rubbish, it would be greatly appreciated.
