What a fabulous day we have had today with our Athletics Carnival. It is always so great to see our students compete in these events and trying their best. We saw some really wonderful examples of great sportsmanship and I was very proud of our students' behaviour throughout the day. Congratulations to Dulgan who were our winning house for the day. Thank you to all the families who were able to come along and join in with the spirit of the day. A very special thanks to Mr P, Mrs Rowe and Mr Christie who did all the planning for the day.

Today was our last day for Miss Durnford in Prep Bilbies as she is taking off a couple of weeks to get married to her partner Connor. We will welcome her back next term as Mrs Harding. We wish her and Connor all the best for their wedding and for a lifetime of love and happiness ahead.

Please check out our Learning and Teaching Advisor, Mrs Aleesha Rockemer’s article in this newsletter about how to understand your child’s report card that will be sent out next week.

Next week, we have the second game for the State of Origin. Students are again invited to wear their Maroon or Blue colours on Wednesday for the Men’s game or Thursday for the Women’s game which is being played here in Townsville.

Have a fabulous weekend. Last week til the holidays and everyone gets a break from school!

Cheers

Penny
