The opening of the new learning space for Year 4 added some energy and interest around the school, not to mention the reclaiming of some playground space.
Mrs Burke, Mrs Baldock and Year 4 are enjoying setting up and making best use of their new learning area. My thanks to our community for your patience and cooperation during this process.
This space will support the teachers in providing the facilities and learning opportunities that our children deserve.
A number of other important facilities will also be upgraded over the coming months.
- the student toilets will be refurbished
- the playground will be improved with the unevenness of the surface being addressed
- a shade area will be reconstructed in the playground to partly replace the one removed for the new learning space
- the COSHC will also receive some additional work.
This work is supported by the Catholic Education Office and we are very grateful for their consideration and supporting the needs of the St Matthew’s community. A timeline for the work is yet to be finalised but this will be shared with the community once known.
We look forward to having our amazing children and teachers working in the space collaboratively so that it is really brought to life.
