End of Year Assembly
The End of Year Assembly is always a fantastic opportunity to celebrate the school year, reflect on different events and recognise achievements from across the school. Due to COVID-19 and the impact that has on social distancing and venue density requirements, our End of Year Assemblies will look different in 2020.
To allow every child to have the opportunity to have someone in the crowd to support them and to achieve the appropriate requirements, we will be holding separate assemblies for Kinder-Prep, Grades 1-2, Grades 3-4 and for Grades 5-6. Each student will be able to have either one parent, family member or friend attend their assembly.
Our Kinder-Prep assembly will be held at 11:15am on Tuesday 15th December, and our Grade 1-2 assembly will be held on the same day at 1:30pm. Each assembly will run for about an hour.
Our Grade 3-4 assembly will be held on the evening of Friday 11th December at 5:00pm. The Grade 5-6 assembly will be held on the same night, starting at 6:45pm. It is expected that the Grade 5-6 assembly will run a little longer than the other assemblies, providing an opportunity for our Grade 6 students to celebrate their primary school years. Students in Grade 3, 4, 5 and 6 who are members of the school band and senior choir are invited to attend both assemblies. The parents of these children will only be able to attend the actual assembly of their child, but are welcome to stay at the school in Minimbah where they can have a coffee to wait for their child to sing or perform.
The assemblies will be live streamed to allow family and friends that cannot be present to tune in and watch students perform. While this is a different format than we would prefer, it is a unique opportunity for every child to be up on stage and present - something we are very much looking forward to.
