Principal's Message This Friday, we will start a well-deserved holiday for two weeks. It has been a different six months; however the children have been amazing during these uncertain times. I would also like this opportunity to thank our amazing staff at our school. They continue to be flexible to support our students and give them the best opportunities during this time. We will have some changes to guidelines in Term 4 and further clarity on events to be held such as parents joining us for school events, Presentation Night and the Year 6 dinner. Watch this space.

Wetlands Excursion - by Rosie Baker Last week on Thursday our small school EPS went on an excursion for the first time this year! When we got there we learnt about solar power. We did lots of other fun activities as well, like dip netting. That was my favourite. Also, we saw lots of swans, bugs and saw one eel two times. I learnt lots of things like to stop littering to protect the environment. We also used microscopes to look up close at all of the bugs we caught during dipnetting. The teacher that taught us, Mrs Gardener told us lots of things, like birds from different places around the world came to the wetlands! It was so fun I wish we could go there again.
