Class 1 have focused on Nyitting Stories – stories from the Dreaming. We have listened to, retold, illustrated, composed and written key sentences from Dreaming stories from Wadandi Boodjar, Whadjuk Noongar Boodjar and further afield. The children have been deeply engaged with these complex stories which gently impart moral and ethical wisdom as well as deep understandings of the land.

The students in Class 2 have been practising how the fluid world of colour movement is awakened through Wet on Wet painting. We have been inspired by the colours and forms that are found around us at this time of the year.
Welcome back to all our students, both new and returning! In this edition, we reflect on our winter festival and bid farewell to a long-standing staff member.
We warmly anticipate welcoming our students and their families on Friday evening and look forward to embracing the quiet and introspective mood of the festival.
The children have been immersed in a flurry of activity, crafting their unique winter lanterns and learning new seasonal songs in anticipation of the much loved Winter Festival.
This edition features natural beauty with the Aurora Australis and crescent moon, enriching an outdoor education program, visits from an indigenous author, and preparations for a winter festival focused on fostering positivity and connection among students.
