RE-ENROLMENTS

We’re still missing some re-enrolments for next year. Please note that permanent bookings cannot be made until your re-enrolment is completed, and we are already running waitlists for some days…

The link that was sent out will expire this Sunday (23 Nov), so be sure to submit it before then!!

LEAVING SCHOOLGROUNDS

For the safety and supervision of all our students, we kindly ask that parents and guardians leave the school grounds after picking up their children. While we understand the temptation to chat with other families or let kids play on the equipment, we cannot prioritise these activities over ensuring proper supervision. If you're bringing younger siblings to pickup, please make sure they stay with you at all times. This helps us maintain a safe environment for all children still in our care. We ask that you enter the school, sign out your child, and exit the grounds promptly. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation! ☺️

SPORT: bin ball, golden child, jack in the pack, kings & queens, European handball, touch rugby, knockout basketball and 3-point shooting! As well as our usual favourite soccer and soccer shootouts.

🐝 BEES OF THE WEEK 🐝

OPHELIA (Y5)

A very HUGE congratulations to our very own Ophelia H in Y5, who recently won the regional finals for poetry slam competition & is onto the state finals! Way to go Ophelia!!!

You can watch her submission HERE.

“The theme for my poem was For The Wild, but it was more about the effects that control and peer pressure have on the wild. I’m so excited to compete in the state finals at Taronga Zoo!” - Ophelia

LEROY - EDUCATOR

Leroy grew up and went to school in the Bondi area and enjoys spending as much time as possible outdoors and in the sun! When he’s not relaxing at the beach or camping on the South Coast, Leroy devotes his time to creative pursuits. He recently completed studies in furniture and interior design and is also a passionate musician, performing at venues across Sydney—from local Bondi stages to the Opera House!!

Leroy is also an enthusiastic traveler, exploring destinations around the world including Fiji, New Zealand, the United States, and most recently Europe, where he spent nearly two months visiting eight different countries…woah!!
