We hope your child is enjoying being back at school for Term 2. The lead up to the term was challenging for students, families and schools as together we responded to COVID-19. We know some things had to be done differently, such as high school open days which were cancelled, postponed or moved to online. If you’re interested in learning about your child’s high school now, speak with your high school about how to best connect. If you’re unsure of which high school zone you live in, use the Find a School tool on the department’s website. Getting ready for the Move Primary and high schools are working hard to plan for the move of year 7 to high school in 2022. If your child is in year 5 or 6 this year, they’ll be graduating from primary school next year. Primary schools are thinking now about how to make your child’s last year in primary school a positive experience. High school planning is also in full swing to welcome year 7s and year 8s together in 2022. Primary and high schools are working together at every level to make the move a success for your child. Stay engaged with your school to keep updated with the latest information. Where to find out more Stay informed through your school and the Department for Education’s website: http://www.education.sa.gov.au/7toHS Or share your feedback with the project team by emailing: [email protected].

Recently the SRC created a joyful dance video “Walking on Sunshine” with the help of the teachers and some students. This video welcomed students back to school in a healthy and safe environment following Covid-19. You can view this video through Google+.
At the end of week 6 we held a Rainbow Clothes/Art Competition to raise money for a new PA system. We raised over $750. A big thank you to the school community for your generosity. It was great to see the school full of colour and all the artworks on display in classrooms.
To celebrate and acknowledge Reconciliation Week we have ran activities in the library with some of the SRC Executives.
We have also purchased a new BOSE portable speaker and two wireless microphones with our fundraising money. Thank you again to the school community for your generous donations.
To celebrate the end of term the SRC are hosting a FREE casual clothes day. You can choose to wear casual clothes, free choice, or go with the theme ‘Comfy Clothing’.
Thank you to the teachers, SRC Representatives, Executives and students who helped during Term 2.
