Teddy Bear’s Picnic

March 23rd Kindergarten held their annual Teddy Bear’s Picnic. It is always such a happy event with all of our parents involved. Well done to all the students and teachers for making the day a great success, particularly Miss King for her organisation.

Cross Country

On Friday, WWSPS had its school Cross-Country for Years 2-6. All students performed extremely well and got in and gave it their best, which is all we can ask! Congratulations to all those students who finished in the top 6 places in their age group. We wish you all the very best at the SCC Zone carnival. Thanks to Mr Young for all his organisation of the event.

Easter Hat Parade

Tuesday April 4th, WWS will host one of its favourite annual school events – the Easter Hat Parade. We warmly invite family and friends to attend on the day and be a part of the event.

WWS Yarn Up & Cultural Garden Opening

Yesterday WWS hosted the official opening of our new cultural garden down near the Wentworth Ave gate.

The garden has been a project solely completed by our School Administration Manager, Jen Macgregor a task far beyond her required role, but a true testament to her outstanding commitment to our school community.

A huge thankyou for the countless hours she has given up liaising with trades, building garden beds and ordering the appropriate plants. Thank you also to our Aboriginal families who attended the opening and to the broader members of our local Aboriginal school community (whose dancing was amazing!) and Koorana AECG, who so generously gave of their time to be with us.

We hope this is a place for all to enjoy for many years come and on the back of the positive feeling at the event yesterday, something we can do regularly to bring our community together. Lastly, congratulations and thankyou to our Aboriginal Education team at WWS for all the fantastic organisation of the event – much appreciated.

As this is the last newsletter for Term 1, I would like to wish you all a very happy Easter and hope you are all able to enjoy some quality time with family and friends.

Kind regards,

Matt Barr

Principal
