  • Year 10 Netballers

    Published 12/02/25

    The 10 girls had their district netball tournament where they put up a very valiant effort.

She is such a solid defender, very agile, always makes tremendous interceptions which often turns the game around, she is a formidable opponent and gives any goal attack a hard game.

  • Blind Date with a Book

    Published 10/02/25

    In the lead up to Valentine’s Day, pupils can choose a ‘Blind Date with a Book’. Selected books are wrapped, and given an age rating and brief description, for pupils to choose something a bit different. If they return them with a short book review, and ‘rate their date’, they will receive a Valentine-themed sweet treat. As the saying goes – never judge a book by its cover, and this is a great way to increase and vary children’s reading habits.
