Transitioning smoothly into ‘big school’: What parents need to know
The first day of Kindergarten! It’s a milestone filled with excitement, pride and maybe a few nerves (for both you and your child!). Starting “big school” marks the beginning of a whole new adventure, and with a little preparation, you can help make those first weeks calm, confident and full of smiles.

🚌 🏕️ The Year That Was - Year 5 2025 🏕️ 🚌 What an incredible year it has been for Year 5! From day one, this wonderful group of students set the bar high with their hard work, kindness, and enthusiasm. We’ve shared countless classroom jokes, tackled challenges with determination, and celebrated so much learning growth together. Their progress this year has been huge, and we are so proud of everything they’ve achieved. One of our biggest highlights was our unforgettable camp to Collaroy, where students pushed themselves, supported each other, and shone during our team-building adventures. Whether it was the Teamwork Challenge, high-energy Laser Tag, courageous Rock Climbing, nerve-testing Abseiling, or soaring down the Flying Fox, Year 5 showed cooperation, bravery, and incredible team spirit. We also loved our excursion to Camden, where students learned about Australia’s early settlements and deepened their understanding of our history. We had special artworks on display at Windsor RSL to showcase our reflections on Remembrance Day. Along the way, we enjoyed some well-earned rewards too — from hot chips to pyjama days — celebrating goals met and effort shown. Our High School Taster Day at Bede Polding gave students a glimpse into the exciting years ahead and showed just how ready they are for new challenges. Above all, this year was filled with fun, friendship, success, and unforgettable memories. Year 5, you are a wonderful bunch of kids and you made every day a joy. We can’t wait to see what amazing things you achieve next! Mrs Seymour, Mrs Taylor, Mrs Palacios, Mrs Roy and Miss Barker 💙💛

📚 🧪 The Year That Was - Year 4 2025 🧪 📚 This year in Year 4 has been exciting, fun, and full of learning and love! Students grew in confidence as they explored new ideas, tackled challenges, and celebrated their achievements together. To look back now and see how far they have come, individually and as a group, is truly amazing! From day 1 our classroom buzzed with curiosity; from creative writing and hands-on science to big math moments and reading adventures. Some stand out highlights would have to be our science incursion day where we got to learn more about forces and participate in some seriously fun experiments as well as our 190 year celebration evening where we performed the greatest ever 90’s dance mix and really shone with our choreography and “have a go” spirit! We celebrated Mrs Battye with a baby shower she’ll never forget and got to meet beautiful Isla when she brought her in for a special visit. Along the way, friendships blossomed, teamwork strengthened, and everyone brought something special to our class community. We laughed, learned, supported one another, and created memories that will stick with us for years to come. It has truly been a year where hearts and minds have grown side by side. Thank you Year 4 for being the incredible people you are. We can’t wait to see what Year 5 and 2026 holds for you! Mrs Stockman, Mrs Worrall, Ms Ridge, Ms Samuels and Mrs Richards 💙💛

🍃 🪩 The Year That Was - Year 3 2025 🪩 🍃 What an incredible year it has been for Year 3 in 2025! We’ve had a year filled with fun, learning, laughter and so many moments to be proud of. Our students worked hard to reach their goals, showed resilience when things felt challenging, and built beautiful friendships that made each day brighter. Some of our standout memories include dancing the night away at our school’s 190-year disco celebration, exploring the outdoors and connecting with nature on our excursion to Brewongle, and the excitement of finally being able to take part in the sports gala days. We loved bringing stories to life during Book Parade and discovering new ways to create and learn with our Chromebooks. We always loved reward days when we landed our parachutes and were so proud to celebrate some of our students making their first Reconciliation. Year 3, you have grown so much, both individually and as a team. We are incredibly proud of everything you’ve achieved and the joy you’ve brought to our classroom this year. Here’s to an amazing 2025! Mrs Brand, Mrs Baldock, Mrs Hulett, Mrs Bugeja, Mrs Osmond and Ms Samuels 💙💛
