May General Meeting 8th May 2019<\/strong><\/p>\n

The May general meeting of the P&C was held last Wednesday and was preceded by a presentation by Joel Morrison, Deputy Principal, on gifted education. Thanks to Joel for an interesting talk about the particular characteristics and needs of gifted students and how the school works toward meeting these needs and helping our children flourish.<\/p>\n

The major outcome from the May meeting was to pass a motion to spend up to $100 000 to convert the current tennis courts into futsal courts, as per the request of students and staff. The school will now proceed with a working party to determine the best approach and submit this proposal to Assets at DOE for approval.<\/p>\n
