Today we bid a heartfelt farewell to our outstanding Year 6 students. To commemorate this momentous day they enjoyed Kindergarten Cafe with their kindy buddies, The Amazing Race, sausage sizzle for lunch and a spectacular farewell at the end of the day with the final hat toss on the bell. There were beaming smiles and a few bittersweet tears but we have every confidence that you will soar to great heights and we wish you all the very best ♥️💙♥️💙

Today Year 6 embarked on a transformative reflection day. Inspired by the scripture ‘I am with you always, to the end of time’, students crafted meaningful micrography, colourful rice mandalas and calmly walked the labyrinth. The day brought profound reflection of their primary years and aspirations for a bright future.
