Each week I visit the Defence Kids in their classrooms. The DSM program in Term 1 focuses on the integration of new students, supporting them, and their teachers and helping to promote a healthy school environment. Please feel free to send me an email if there are queries on how I can assist your children. It can be very helpful to know if a Defence parent is away for an extended period. Please send relevant information to me or their classroom teacher.

The school ANZAC Day service will take place on April 29 at 9.15am. This year our guest speaker will be Ben Farinazzo, a former Australian Army officer and two-time gold medal winner at the 2018 Invictus Games. He is an ambassador for Soldier On and a strong advocate for mental health and the healing power of sport. We warmly welcome all our families to this school event and please stay for morning tea if time allows.
