Principal's Post

Dear Parents and Carers,

What a year it has been!

As I mentioned in my Presentation day speeches, this year has been about transformation and improvement by clearing the path for a focus on high quality teaching and powerful learning.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the staff and community that have contributed to supporting LEPS throughout 2019.

To our Year 6 students, we wish you all the best as you venture into high school.

Have a safe and wonderful holiday. We look forward to starting a new decade with you all in 2020.

Mrs Nic Williams

Beating the heat at the Art Galleries and Libraries in Albury

One of my favourite ways to beat the heat is to go to an art gallery or library…… OK, or the pool! Without doubt, Albury has extreme heat, but we also have some great places to get a bit of relief.

Until February, 2020, some of our students art works will be displayed in the front foyer of the MAMA Art Gallery on Dean Street, Albury. These artworks are part of the ‘Pets Saloon’, a community exhibition that is running during MAMA’s ‘Pets’ exhibition. Our student’s creativity and interpretation of what pets are is highly imaginative, with Samir Thapa depicting a dragon, Amelia Harvey showing a colourful winged cat and Wade Mitchell depicting a faceless man and dog.

Our artists included in this exhibition are:

Samir Thapa, Wade Mitchell, Clover Darwent, Murphy Darwent, Amelia Harvey, Marshall Grady and Tracey Jennings (Staff).

If you haven’t done it before, please see my good friends at the Library Museum and Lavington Library who will set you up with a Library borrowing card for the holidays.

Keep reading in the air-conditioning,
