PA System

The P & C has just spent $4200.00 to have the school's PA System fixed and upgraded. We believe it is very important that we have a system that can service the whole school. The students will soon be having Fire Drills and Lock Down Drills with the new system.

Interactive Whiteboards

Recently the P & C donated $4,500.00 to the school to help fund the purchase of 3 interactive whiteboards. These will be put in 5/6J (Stage 3), 3P (Stage 2) and 1/2F (Stage 1). This will enhance the students learning experience.

Canteen News

Exciting News!!!! The canteen will be open every Friday. There will be drinks, ice blocks, JJ's and Jelly Joys. A list will be posted here in the next few days. The P & C will run it one Friday and Years 5 and 6 will run it the next week. This will help raise money for the Year 6 farewell.

Choir, Recorder & Guitar Group

Our Choir, Recorder and Guitar Group performed at Merrylands Stockland Mall on Wednesday 27th May as part of Education Week celebrations. The Mayor of Holroyd came to watch and we stopped shoppers in their tracks. Many elderly shoppers had a tear in their eye when they sang the Anzac song "Always Remember". They were absolutely fantastic. Considering that the guitar group has only been going a few months they did a great job. There was an encore perform at school in the hall on Thursday and our parents were thrilled with what they saw. A big THANK YOU to our music teacher Mrs Lawrence for all the hard work she put in.
