Welcome to Term 4! 

I hope you all enjoyed a restful and enjoyable school holiday break and are feeling refreshed for what promises to be a busy and exciting Term 4. There are many wonderful learning opportunities in the excursions and special events planned throughout the term, and we look forward to sharing these experiences with our students and families. 
 
This week, our Year 4 students will participate in their much-anticipated Year 4 Camp. Students will spend the day learning in Botanic Park and the Adelaide Botanic Garden before returning to school for an overnight camping experience on site. 
 
Next week promises to be just as exciting. Our Junior Primary students will take part in the Mini Olympics on Friday 23 October. Year 6 students will enjoy an excursion to the Space Discovery Centre and Government House on Tuesday 20 October, while our School Choir will showcase their talents at an after-school choir performance on Wednesday 21 October. 

Market Day 2026 – Save the Date!

Friday 13th November | Week 5 
 
We are thrilled to announce that our annual Market Day will be held later this term! Hosted by our enthusiastic Student Representative Council (SRC), this much-loved event takes place during the lunch break and is always one of the highlights of the school year. 
 
Students in Years 3-6 will have the exciting opportunity to operate their own market stalls, selling a variety of homemade and second-hand items to students from ELC to Year 6. Please note that food and beverages will not be sold. 
 
If your child would like to make a purchase or two, we kindly ask that they bring cash in a sealed and clearly labelled envelope. Classroom teachers will keep envelopes safe until Market Day begins. Items will be priced between 50 cents and $10, making the event both affordable and enjoyable for all students. 
 
Our SRC students have already begun planning and preparing for the day. Their leadership and dedication will no doubt make this year's Market Day a memorable success. 
 
Parents and caregivers are warmly invited to join us for the festivities. Stalls will be open from 1:00pm to 1:30pm, providing an opportunity to browse, support our students, and enjoy the vibrant atmosphere. We kindly ask that families encourage students to manage their own stalls and purchases independently wherever possible. 
 
Market Day has become a treasured school tradition, celebrating creativity, student agency, and initiative. We look forward to another fun-filled afternoon and hope to see many families there. 
 
Wishing you and your family a wonderful week ahead.
