Grade 6 News
Grade 6 Presentation Evening
Last night, it was lovely to have a celebration around our grade 6 leavers and be joined by a limited number of family and friends.
We were able to share our journey across this unusual year and identify challenges, happy times and wonderful learning that has happened in the 4 classrooms, across 4 terms.
Our donors enabled us to recognise strong academic students, quality citizens, leadership and more. The full list is below and we congratulate all recipients on this recognition.
It was a successful event and we wish our leavers every success as they move into high school.

Grade 6 Celebration Dinner
Date: Tuesday 15th December at 6:00pm for 6:30pm start. Concluding at 8:45pm.
Venue: Launceston Golf Club. Limited staff in attendance for 2020.
Students are asked to dress smartly for this occasion, and at school, conversations are around neat and tidy, celebration and certainly not about new and expensive.
Arriving at the venue is not public, so normal transport is expected. Students will gather at the back of the venue for photo opportunities, and for the respect and safety of all, adults are asked to please adhere to the social distancing expectation of 1.5M. Thank you for your support here which will avoid embarrassment for many.
The School and the School Association have made a donation towards the cost of the dinner with the cost to families at $25. Payments can be made either in person at the school office or over the phone via card, EFTPOS/Card is the preferred method of payment. Payments need to be made no later than Friday 11th December. If you need a payment plan, the school is able to discuss this – please ask to speak to Nicole.
