🌟 Our Billy Tea Bushdance Incursion and evening was a roaring success! 🌟

Our students immersed themselves in the lively rhythms and spirited steps of traditional bush dances. Throughout the day, they learned an array of dances, twirls, and steps, soaking up the rich cultural heritage with enthusiasm and joy.

But the fun didn't stop there! Our evening dance brought families together to join in the festivities. We were ready to share our newfound skills.

📸 Check out our dedicated teachers who were captured demonstrating their dance prowess and spreading laughter and cheer throughout the evening.

Thank you to The Billy Tea Bush Band and all who participated in this incredible event. 💃🕺

POWER OUTAGE UPDATE:

Dear families,

The school power is not back on and we don’t know when it will be returned.

We have been advised we are still to open (at this stage) but obviously our program will be limited without power so if you can, it may be an idea to keep your children home today.

We will continue to update you here. The school phones don’t work without power.

Please communicate this message with other school families you know who may not have power and won’t see this.

Thank you.

We look forward to our first Breakfast Club for 2024 starting Wednesday, 14th February.

We have to share with you our experience at the 2024 GRIP Student Leadership Conference. It couldn't have come at a better time as we begin our own leadership journeys. We are feeling very inspired to lead with our best foot forward.
