Each school schedules another three days throughout the year in consultation with its school council/board and school community.

Our annual Open Night will be held on Tuesday, 29 August (Week 7). Our art program, music, drama and visual arts will be presenting their work in the undercover area.
The band and choir will commence from 5pm to 5.30pm. Classes will be open from 5.30pm-6.50pm.
There will be a drama performance from 7pm-7.30pm in the undercover area.
The Open Night is an opportunity for families to come and have a look at the wonderful work of students and see our great facilities. Teachers will be available to say hello and introduce themselves if parents/caregivers haven’t met before. The Open Night is a time to celebrate all of the outstanding teaching and learning opportunities implemented across the school, it is not a time for parent/teacher interviews.
Should you wish to have a more in-depth conversation with your child’s classroom teacher, an appointment can be made for a later date. I look forward to seeing many families taking the opportunity to come in and look at our wonderful work.
