From The Principal:
Dear Parents and Carers,
What a lovely welcome BBQ we had last Thursday on what was a beautifully warm evening. It was wonderful to see so many families coming together as a community to chat, enjoy each others company and to make some new connections. A special thank you to our wonderful P&F mums and dads who helped out with the food preparation and organisation on the night.
Kind regards,
Mary Bennett
