Bush Walk

I recently went for a walk with the Year 4/5 Class in our bush area. We saw many flowers including this lovely Banksia. If you have some time, you are most welcome to go for a walk around our gardens while the wildflowers are out.

Parent Workshop

The worshop was a great success. Everyone learnt how easy it was to make healthy lunchbox and picnic foods that kids and adults would love.
Fantastic Community

Last Sunday we had a fantastic response to help develop our vegetable garden. Parents should be very proud of what they achieved in such a short time. Everyone enjoyed themselves including my dog. She managed to dig a few holes but not in the right places.

Welcome Back
Welcome back everyone. I had a lovely break catching up with family and friends. Term 2 is shaping up to be an exciting one. Today we had our school photographs taken. The whole school shot will look great. It was lovely to see the school canteen open with thanks to Kathy and her team. March 11, 2008

A First for Orange Grove
One week ago, parents, staff and students were having breakfast and very patiently waiting for their new laptops. At that point, I could see the dream becoming a reality. The students, supported by their parents, were receiving their very own laptop to use in the classroom. 
On Monday, these same children walked proudly into school carrying their new tool for learning. You should have seen the SMILES. Well done everyone.

Exciting Changes in 2008
Happy New Year everyone. 2008 is shaping up to be an exciting one with our progress forward into the future. Technology will play an even more important role in supporting our students, particulary in Years 4 to 7. Congratulations to our parent body for having the resolve to make history happen! We are a small community with a global vision. FANTASTIC!

Help for Parents
You may have noticed an Australian Government national advertising campaign promoting NetAlert - a practical advice and resource for parents and teachers on Internet safety for children.
Another Success for the School

The 2007 Teachers' Innovative Online Learning Award has recognised those teachers at the forefront of integrating online technologies into education. This award promoted and publicised best practice in online learning in Western Australian public schools and highlighted the Department's vision that schools will become networked learning communities and that ICT will be an integral part of teaching and learning.

Photographs Wanted
We are searching for old photographs of the school or students from the early days. Perhaps there is someone in the wider community who can help us. We can scan and return them immediately.

Drop Everything and Read Day
We recently had a special event which gave the children an opportunity to read to their "hearts' content". Happy readers could be seen in all parts of the school both inside and out. This wonderful strategy supports our Literacy priority beautifully.
