On Thursday the 2nd of May the students at Woodvale Primary School will be competing in the annual Cross-Country event. Please see Connect for the times relevant to your child/ren. We hope to see you there to cheer students across the finish line.

Last week, we held a special ceremony to commemorate the ANZACs. The Student Councilors did a fantastic job running the service and spoke clearly and confidently. Corporal Ryan Cooper addressed the audience and spoke of the relevance of the ANZAC story to our lives today. Former students, Billy and Ruben played the trumpet to sound the Last Post and Rouse, and the choir performed a beautiful song to allow the audience a moment of reflection.

Each class laid a wreath in remembrance and respect. Students made their wreaths in class and learned about the symbols of ANZAC Day and the significance of Australia’s involvement in wars and peacekeeping missions since World War One. A sample of student work from across the school is on display in each of the wet areas.
