The Vi Barham Award for Academic Excellence

The Vi Barham Award for Academic Excellence is given to students whose academic results are nothing less than extraordinary. Students from all schools in the Great Southern region (about 70 different schools) are eligible for the award.

Congratulations go to both Elizabeth and Shaun for their stellar performance in the 2013 Naplan tests. Their results were of such magnitude that they were selected for the short list for the Vi Barham. They will compete against 8 other students from other schools for the award, and we wish them both the bets of luck.

Homework

Well, it may be my imagination but it seems that we had a better uptake for homework in cycle 12. Maybe the children are realising its importance at last - or else they are realising the threat to lose their end of year excursion is very real indeed...

Cycle 13 homework has been delayed due to inclement photocopiers, and will be given out this Monday 4th Nov. This will mean there is just enough time to complete it before camp week :)
