Sports News

Our amazing Junior students have made a wonderful start to their PE lessons. They have so far enjoyed parachute play, working together and playing team games. Seeing many happy faces has been delightful!

Rugby Victoria NRL

We were lucky enough to have a representative from the NRL team Melbourne Storm come to our school to run a Rugby clinic for our Year 3/4 students. It was a great opportunity for students to learn about a less familiar sport and practise beginner rugby skills such as running with a rugby ball and scoring a try.

Interschool Sports

Our Year 5/6 students have begun competing in the summer season of Interschool Sports; Basketball, T.ball and Tennis. It has been affirming to see outstanding leadership, sportsmanship and respect for each other and their competitors during these early weeks of competing. Each week students are continuing to develop their skills in their allocated sport and are having fun with their teammates.

Naplan Assessment ( Yr 3 & 5)

The National Assessment Program – Literacy and Numeracy (NAPLAN) for Years 3 & 5 students are fast approaching.

NAPLAN tests assess student knowledge and skills in Writing, Reading, Conventions of Language (spelling, grammar and punctuation) and Numeracy. The results of the tests provide information for students, parents, teachers and principals which can be used to improve student achievement.

If you have any concerns about your child participating in the Online Naplan Assessments please discuss these with his/her classroom teacher. Extra support/ adjustments can be arranged for students with a disability if they meet the criteria.

* Please note that parents are required to sign a formal exemption or withdrawal form if their child is not participating in these online Assessments.
