Assembly
It was fantastic to have parents and friends attend our assemblies today, joining us to celebrate student achievements and learning from across our school. Thank you for understanding that we must have two assemblies instead of one large assembly due to COVID-19 expectations. We feel that a significant positive from this model is allowing more students to showcase their learning and highlight the breadth of curriculum classes are accessing. Congratulations to all students that received awards today, keep being aspirational while demonstrating growth, courage and respect.  

Art Exhibition
We have all experienced a different year in 2020, with normal routines and events impacted in some way. Normally around this time of year, our school would be showcasing their art skills by presenting the Boat Harbour Primary School Art Exhibition. Students and staff were determined to still achieve this, however this year it will be a virtual art exhibition. The standard of art work across our school is outstanding. Our students are accessing a broad range of techniques and materials, building their range of skills, creativity and confidence. Presenting the exhibition this way has also allowed different elements of the arts to be showcased, including stop motion videos, singing, band and drama - I look forward to you enjoying the exhibition tomorrow when it goes live.

Cross Country
Participation was the key at our school cross country that was held in perfect conditions last Friday. The course ventured into our school paddock, dodging potatoes and climbing heart break hill! While running isn’t for everyone, all students demonstrated excellent persistence and resilience to complete the course. The smiles of satisfaction once students had caught their breath highlighted the accomplishment of completing something difficult and succeeding. A massive congratulations to everyone for having a go and participating on the day, well done.
