APRE Report

We’ve made it to the end of what has been a very busy and I would say successful term.  We started the week with Whole School Meditation. It was great to see the students, despite distracting noises from our building projects around us, sit in quiet meditation together.  Meditation really is a wonderful community building practice.

Ecofest 2019

Congratulations to the 5/6 Turtles who organised a wonderful Ecofest this year.  It was truly a wonderful celebration of all the environmental learning that our classes partake in.  As well as celebrating our eProjects, it was great to welcome local businesses and organisations to share the work they do to help care for our environment.  We even had some students and teachers from Ryan Catholic College attend, who were very impressed to see what’s happening at our school. I look forward to see the continuation and growth of this event as our school continues to expand.
