Buy Your Community Dollars Now

You are now able to purchase Community Dollars. Parents can buy Community Dollars via QKR, under ‘Fundraising’. There will be no cash transactions at the stalls. Community Dollars can be spent on a variety of delicious food and fun activity stalls.

REMINDER: Pre-sale of Community Dollars on QKR will close at 11.00am on Monday, 31 March. We advise pre-purchasing the dollars so students don't have to line up to purchase and miss out on any of the activities and stalls.  

Please note: All Community Dollars purchased will go to FightMND; there will not be any refunds of unspent Community Dollars. All Community Dollars (spent and unspent) will go into a raffle to win exciting prizes. 

The Community Dollars will be handed out to students on the day, prior to Community Day starting. 

It's not too late to donate! 

Please can you ask your employers, or as a family, sponsor a prize, so that we can raise more funds for Fight MND!

Possible Prize ideas: Bicycle, PlayStation, Vouchers for BigW, Target, Food Vouchers etc.

A BIG THANKYOU TO: Kairos Business Solutions for the wonderful prizes they have donated - an ipad, noise-cancelling headphones, portable speakers plus other electronic items. Thankyou also to the Hamdani Family for the donation of Officeworks vouchers and Campion Resources for vouchers as well.  

Please email Associate Principal Nicola.Reilly@education.wa.edu.au if you would like to contribute a prize, or you can drop off at the Finance Desk. Donors will be publicly acknowledged in the school newsletter and on social media. 

Thank you for your support of this fun school event and hor helping this amazing  charity doing great work, we really appreciate it! 

The election for a new Parent Representative on the School Board has wrapped up, and we’re delighted to announce that Dr. Kati Tonkin has been selected for the role. We were fortunate to have three outstanding nominees, and we deeply appreciate their enthusiasm and readiness to contribute to the School Board. Thank you also to all the parents who participated in the voting process—your involvement truly makes a difference. 

When dropping off or picking up your child at the start or end of the school day, please remain at the designated 'kiss and drop' locations or at Reception.

To ensure the safety and security of our school community, all visitors must sign in at Reception. Parents are not permitted to walk through the campus searching for your child or attend their classroom at the end of the school day. If you have a pre-arranged meeting with a teacher or staff member, please sign in at the front office to receive a visitor identification sticker, and Reception will notify the staff accordingly.

Thank you for your cooperation. Together, we can maintain a safe and productive learning environment for all our students.

Get ready for a wild ride with Cosi, where young director Lewis teams up with patients in a 1970s mental institution for a bold social experiment—staging a performance that’s as chaotic as it is heartfelt! Set against the backdrop of Vietnam protests and second-wave feminism, it’s a fun, messy dive into love, mental illness, and the quirks of human connection that’ll spark some lively family chats. We’re bringing this quirky classic to life to show how yesterday’s struggles still hit home today!

Dates: Monday, 31 March and Tuesday, 1 April 

Time: 7.00pm

Venue: Casey Theatre

Tickets: $10

We kindly ask parents to have a chat with their child about the importance of practicing good Public Transport Safety Etiquette. We've received feedback about some students not following these practices while traveling on the Mandurah Line, and a gentle reminder can go a long way in ensuring everyone has a safe and pleasant experience. Here are a few points to share:

• Encourage them to be mindful of those around them by keeping noise levels low and using respectful language.

• Remind them to offer their seat to an adult, as they are traveling on a concession card.

• Highlight the importance of avoiding doorways, so everyone can board and disembark smoothly—no rushing to be first!

• Suggest they keep school bags tucked safely out of pathways to prevent trips or blockages for fellow commuters.

Thank you for supporting us in helping students show care and consideration for others. Together, we can make public transport enjoyable for everyone!
