We're thrilled to share with you the electrifying adventures and unforgettable memories made during our recent Year 6 Camp! From conquering towering heights to navigating through muddy terrains, our students embraced every moment with boundless enthusiasm and courage.

The camp was a whirlwind of excitement, offering a plethora of activities that left our Year 6 students buzzing with exhilaration. Here's a glimpse into the thrilling escapades they embarked upon: 

Mud Mania: What's a camp without a little mud? Our adventurers dove headfirst into the muck, relishing the messy fun as they tackled challenging obstacles and emerged victorious, sporting proud smiles and splattered clothes. 

Giant Slide: Screams of delight echoed through the air as our students zoomed down the towering giant slide, feeling the rush of adrenaline of the long slide. The sheer joy on their faces was truly infectious! 

Archery: With steady hands and focused determination, our young archers took aim and let their arrows fly. Guided by skilled instructors, they honed their marksmanship skills and discovered the thrill of hitting the bullseye. 

Giant Swing: Suspended high above the ground, our students braved the Giant Swing, soaring through the air with hearts pounding and spirits soaring. It was a moment of sheer exhilaration and pure exhilaration – many screams were heard throughout camp. 

Flying Fox: Against the backdrop of breathtaking rainforest scenery, our adventurers soared like birds on the zipline, feeling the wind in their hair and the freedom of flight beneath them. It was an experience that left them feeling empowered and alive. 

Rock Climbing: With grit and determination, our students scaled the towering indoor rock walls, overcoming challenges and reaching new heights both literally and metaphorically. Each ascent was a testament to their strength, resilience, and teamwork of our year 6 students. 

We extend our gratitude to the dedicated staff who made this unforgettable experience possible. Their expertise, guidance, and support ensured that our students could embrace every moment of adventure and discovery.

NAPLAN Testing – A Reflection on Our Students’ Efforts

Last week, our students in Years 3 and 5 participated in the annual NAPLAN assessments. These tests provide valuable insights into students’ literacy and numeracy skills, helping to guide teaching and learning strategies.

We commend our students for their efforts and perseverance throughout the assessments. We also extend our gratitude to our teachers and support staff for their dedication in preparing and supporting students during this time.

While NAPLAN is just one measure of academic progress, it is an opportunity to celebrate our student’s successes and growth. The data collected will not only help us identify areas for improvement but also highlight our strengths and achievements as a school community.

Families will receive NAPLAN results later in the year, and we look forward to using this information to further support our students’ learning. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

Thank you for your ongoing support in fostering a positive learning environment for our students.
