REASONS TO STAY INSIDE
Pedro used to run, skateboard, play soccer, and attend school. Not anymore. Pedro stays inside now.
His best friend, Flora, thinks that’s boring and kind of freaky. But Pedro doesn’t care. He’s building a pillow fort (he would prefer you call it ‘The Death Star’), and it’s getting bigger and bigger every day. Now, it’s getting harder and harder for Flora to reach him.
Pedro has the best Reasons to Stay Inside, but Flora knows what he’s missing, and she will do whatever it takes to get her best friend to come outside.
Reasons to Stay Inside is a delightful show that will have young audiences laughing out loud and embracing their bestie. Tackling children’s mental health with insight and positivity, the production encourages resilience, peer support, and open conversation about emotions. Reasons to Stay Inside engages audiences at the height of their emotional intelligence, asking them to imagine how they would support a friend. It’s playful, hilarious and is an excellent fit for primary school kids.

Athletics Carnival 2025, Lunch & Timetable
2025-10-17 | Western Australia
PP-Yr6 Sports Faction Athletics Carnival is scheduled for this Friday, 17th October 2025.
Lunch orders are only available through Flexischools (Sushi, Sausage Rolls & Drinks are the choices). Please select your faction when ordering. Orders close Wednesday at 3pm. The canteen will not be open as the P&C will run a bake sale at the oval. Icecreams will be available from the school canteen at lunchtime.

Kindly, Year 1-2 classrooms, send lunch monitors to collect lunches from the canteen as per usual at 12:20 p.m.
From the senior carnival, faction captains and student councillors from each faction are selected to go to the canteen at 12:25 p.m. to collect pre-ordered lunches and bring them back to faction bays, where teachers will distribute them.

Parents must sign out their Kindy to Year 2 students for lunch (sign-out sheet in Kindy to Year 2 classes), but they must be returned to class by 1pm so that the senior athletics programme can restart promptly.
Message from Mrs Horan
Our school’s Athletics carnival is fast approaching and is to be held this Friday, 17th October 2025. Please read the following messages for the children, and I look forward to having your support on the day.
Messages for children
If you colour your hair, it must be done at home. Please do not bring sprays to school, and also, spike shoes cannot be worn. Please wear your faction shirt. Two water bottles are better than one whenever you come to school for a sporting event.
Please apply sunscreen at home for the juniors and at recess time for the seniors, and reapply at lunchtime. At the time of this message, Friday is going to be 28 degrees!
At the start of the day, the Junior Primary will be coming down to the undercover area and grass area to set up in their factions. This needs to be done as soon as possible, so be ready to come down as soon as the siren goes. I would like to start the first event by 9am.
The senior children are not allowed on the oval during recess time. When the siren goes at the end of recess, go to your class and then come down to this area to line up in your factions, ready for your marching. The carnival for you begins at approximately 11.30am. The march past will start as soon as the carnival for the Junior Primary is completed.
The March past is also an opportunity to score points for your faction, and the staff will be looking at faction shirts, hats, neat lines, cheering, and smiles.
You can eat lunch with your family. For Junior children, your parent or caregiver must pick you up from your classroom. Lunch is at 12:30 pm – 1 pm.
Have fun on the day, show great sportsmanship, and do your best.
