I'm delighted to report that the design for our new building has been signed off. The intention is for builders to be on site at the beginning of October. Shade Living, the company installing the permanent shade in various parts of the grounds, has been briefed on our requirements and have indicated that installation will begin in early August.

A couple of weeks ago a number of very keen and talented Year 5/6 students had their work, part of a special project, displayed in the National Gallery of Victoria. Photos of some of that work, and some of the other art  currently on display, can bee seen by clicking on the Gallery tab, or by clicking  here.

I wish all families some time for safe rest and recovery over the upcoming school holidays. I am taking some additional leave at the end of the holiday break. Elise Byrne will be acting principal while I'm away.
