Parent Cafe
30th October 
9.00am STEM room
Join us for an interactive Parent Cafe with Ms. Pam focused on how you can support the development of your child's critical thinking skills at home.

Learn how to recognize the signs of these higher-order thinking skills in your child's play and daily interactions, and discover simple yet powerful ways to nurture their development through simple provocations.

Come prepared to engage, share ideas, and leave with actionable tips to support your child's journey as a confident, self-directed learner.




Halloween
31st October 

The spooky season is upon us, and our school is gearing up for an exciting Halloween celebration! On October 31st, all students are invited to dress up in their most creative and imaginative costumes. 

Throughout the day, the children will have the opportunity to trick-or-treat, collecting a variety of cool little items and goodies as they go. This is the perfect chance for our students to showcase their costumes to their classmates and teachers. 

In addition to the trick-or-treating, each class will be decorating their classroom doors with festive Halloween themes. The halls will be filled with ghosts, goblins, superheroes, and all sorts of spooky and delightful characters. It's sure to be a hauntingly good time for everyone involved. 

We can't wait to see all the amazing costumes and creative door decorations that our talented students come up with. Get ready to have a frightfully fun Halloween at our school!

Have a spooky day!
