Dear Families,  

What a busy end of the year it has been! We finished the year with a sports assembly, 3 x kindy transitions, hub band concert, end of year concert, 2 days of Year 6 high school transitions, graduation and said farewell to 40 Year 6 students! It's now time to have a break and get ready for a busy 2023.
