• Thriftwood Day 3

  Fri 07 Jul 2023

  This morning we have become ‘Kayak Ninjas’ with our activities on the lake. Some of us took on the inflatable demolition challenge. We’ve also thrown axes, taken on the Cresta Run and become bushcraft fire masters.

   

  All the children are exhausted from all the fun and will hopefully sleep well tonight. Children are expected to be collected from school at normal dismissal time.

  Thriftwood Day 2

   

  The children (and the adults) have been busy taking part in activities from the moment they woke up.

   

  Today the children had the opportunity to experience many adventurous activities, they began the day with the water roller, zip line and archery, all our children were incredibly brave and loved the morning activities.

   

  After lunch the fun continued and the children took part in Kayaking, leap of faith, archery and axe throwing. All the children are having an incredible time and looking forward to the evening activities.

• International Afternoon

  Mon 03 Jul 2023

  The children had a wonderful afternoon celebrating international afternoon.  A big thank you to all our parents/carers especially the Parent Pastoral Group and Parent Representatives for providing and serving the most delicious range of food to the whole school. 

   

  Without your support none of this would have been possible. Thank you again from all the staff and children!
