In January 2018, our brand new Early Years and Infant Campus will open its doors, joining together our whole school community in one District 2 setting.

Our Weekly Wellbeing focus on Monday established the theme of this week as Attitude for Gratitude which we swiftly followed up on Tuesday with a thought provoking performance of 100 causing us all to consider our most important lifetime memories.

Today the atmosphere was deeply reflective in our Remembrance Day assembly as we were caused to consider the human impact of conflict and how we can best build a better and more peaceful world. I hope you enjoy reading this week’s newsletter and can get an understanding of how this week’s events have reminded us of the importance of our emotional connections, how much we can benefit from them and how they enrich our lives.
