The Grade 1-7 girls had the opportunity to connect across the grades in their family groups today. This time they discussed their ‘Rose and Thorn’ moments from term 3.
The Grade 6 Entrepreneurs have had an extremely busy term raising money through various activities. The official hand-overs of the girls to their organisations have begun and will continue into Term 4. We were incredibly privileged to hear of the incredible work that Project Flamingo and Gift of the Givers are doing in our communities.
