Join us for the 2024 Moon Lantern Festival, a magical evening featuring student performances, stunning lantern displays, a vibrant lantern parade, and delicious food, including sausage sizzle, curries, baked goods, mooncakes, and a variety of street food delights. Bring your family and friends to celebrate our biggest school event and create unforgettable memories together. We can't wait to see you there!

 

 

Onsite Transition #1 - Tuesday, 19 November (9:15am-10:30am)

 

The first onsite transition experience will take place on Tuesday, 19 November. This event is an essential part of the transition offered to all 2025 Foundation students, so please ensure that a parent/carer is available to attend with your child.

 

The onsite experience will consist of activities in both Chinese and English with the current Foundation teachers. Your child will also get to meet some of our current Foundation students who will help them to participate in the activities during the session.

 

Approximately half of the way into the onsite experience, we will ask parents to join us in the Staff Room for a presentation in "Getting Your Child Ready for School", held by our transition team. 

 

 

Onsite Transition #2 - Tuesday, 26 November (9:15am-10:30am)

 

The second onsite transition experience will take place on Tuesday, 26 November. In this onsite experience, students will experience  a Chinese calligraphy lesson. 

Parents will be asked to join us in the Staff Room for an Academic Presentation held by our Exec staff. The focus of this information session will be on academic readiness for English, Chinese and Maths. You will reconvene with your child towards the end of the onsite experience.

 

Onsite Transition #3 - Tuesday, 10 December (11:30am - 12:30pm)

 

The third onsite transition experience will take place on Tuesday, 10 December. In this onsite experience, students will meet their 2025 Foundation teachers and experience an activity with them.

Parents are warmly encouraged to wait outside in the yard. This not only provides a comfortable space to relax but also offers a wonderful opportunity to connect with one another, share experiences, and build a sense of community.

 

End-of-Year Picnic - Thursday, 12 December (3:45-5:45pm)

 

We can confirm that the End-of-Year Picnic will take place between 3:45-5:45pm on Thursday, 12 December. We invite you to join us for this wonderful end-of-year celebration!

 

At this event, there will also be a sausage sizzle, bake sale and secondhand uniform sale. Bring a rug (and your own food if you’d like) and come and join us for… what will hopefully be a sunny afternoon! Please note, attendance at End-of-Year Picnic is strongly encouraged, but not essential.
