School Development Days 2026-Students Do Not Attend
2026-10-12 | Forest Crescent Primary School, 83 Forest Crescent, Thornlie, WA, 6108, Australia
School staff participate in six professional development days for up-skilling on school priorities, data review and planning each year. Students do not attend these days. Two of these days are before the school year starts for students, and one day is after the school year ends for students. A Department term dates calendar can not be provided, as each public school develops its own calendar.

There are six school development days that students do not attend:

Two of these days are before the school year starts for students, and one day is after the school year ends for students.
Each school schedules another three days throughout the year in consultation with its school council/board and school community.
Please view the Forest Crescent Primary Website Calendar or contact your school directly for more information about its specific dates, including school development days.
Students start the school year on Monday, 2nd February and end the school year on Thursday, 17th December 2026.

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, you must do it 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 come down to the undercover area and the grass area to set up their factions. This needs to be done as soon as possible, so be ready to come down when the siren sounds. 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 Junior Primary carnival is over.
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.

Year 1 Drama Excursion-Spare Parts Puppet Theatre
2026-12-03 | WA
The Velveteen Rabbit, based on the book by Margery Williams
He’s a little worn. A little shabby. And absolutely everything to one small boy.
In a playroom bursting with bossy bulldozers, a wise old horse, a flying fairy and a toy box full of colourful characters desperate to be chosen, one small rabbit waits quietly. Patiently. Hopefully.
Told with warmth and beautiful puppetry, this classic story invites young learners to consider the power of friendship, imagination, and what makes something truly real.
Themes

Empathy
Friendship and belonging
Imagination
Identity and self-worth
