Message from Grant Andrews, Acting Head of Junior School

Dear Parents and Carers,

Music Showcases
I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to Mr Fox, Mrs Holmes à Court, Ms Chan, Mrs Trew, Mr Hentschel and Mr Hayles and supporting staff for the wonderful showcases last Thursday. The students are to be congratulated on their beautiful singing and remarkable musical performances. Thank you to the families who joined us in celebration of the outstanding achievements of the Music Department and their students.  We are looking forward to the Gala Concert: Threads on Monday, 24 June: 7pm – 9pm at Sydney Town Hall. Please read the Music section for more detailed information.

Camps
A big thank you to our Staff for their dedication and commitment to ensuring this week’s Year 3 and Year 5 camps were enjoyable experiences for our students. Camps, especially in the primary years, play a crucial role in building resilience, fostering cooperation and enhancing social skills. They provide opportunities for children to face and overcome challenges, boosting their confidence and adaptability. Moreover, camps encourage teamwork and collaboration, helping students develop stronger interpersonal relationships and a sense of community. Please see the photo galleries from both camps in the News section.

Y3-Y6 Athletics Carnival
On 20 June, our Y3-Y6 students will be participating in their annual Athletics Carnival to be held on Dangar Oval. Please follow this link for more detailed information about this event. The Programme of Events is available to view here.

We wish everyone a restful long weekend.
