60th Anniversary
We're excited to host our Trivia Night fundraiser in conjunction with our 60th Anniversary. This event is not only a great opportunity to socialize and compete with friends, but it also benefits our local school's sports facilities. So come out and test your knowledge on a variety of subjects while giving back to the community!
MAJOR SPONSOR:
Chesterfield Farm
Foundation students have been learning all about animals and their features and needs as part of their Science topic this term. Yesterday, the students were able to apply this learning during their excursion to Chesterfield Farm. The students had hands on experiences in seeing fun demonstrations on how to care for animals, as well as having a go at feeding them. It was a wonderful day of fun and interactive learning!

Mont de Lancey
The Grade 3/4s went to Mont De Lancey to learn about what life was like in the early 1900s. The students enjoyed dressing up in clothes from the time. They got to see what a house would have looked like and what machines were used and how a blacksmith and woodturner worked and experienced what school was like.

Meet Jeff & Possum
In Foundation this term, we will be investigating How the World Works. We will be exploring how animals meet their basic needs in order to survive. To help us with our learning, we are so excited to have 2 Guinea Pigs - Jeff and Possum! Jeff and Possum will be with our grade for the first 4 weeks of term, allowing us to go deeper with our understanding and apply our learning about an animal’s needs.
