Donate a Book
In honour of Book Week, and the many beautiful books we have access to, we would like each student (or each family) to donate a children’s book for the children who have arrived in Perth recently as refugees with few belongings from ‘home’. This is a perfect opportunity for our students to action the ‘Service for Others’ component of our school motto. It will also help to reinforce how very fortunate we are to have a range of lovely books to choose from each day and night.
Children might choose:
- a book they’ve enjoyed but outgrown if still in good condition
- a copy of a favourite book that is quick and easy to purchase in the next fortnight
Parent Sign-In
If parents are helping out in a classroom, canteen or the uniform shop, we ask that you please come through the office to sign in. It is important for us to know who is on the premises in the event of an emergency. Thank you.

Joey Scouts
Joey Scouts is for all children aged 5 (attending Pre-Primary) -7
Heading outdoors is one of the best things about being a Scout; Joey Scouts go camping, discover new places, try adventurous activities and learn about the world. Through engaging with nature and learning in the outdoors, Joey Scouts start to imagine and discover more about themselves and the world around them, with an emphasis on fun and friendship.
Tuesdays: 4h30 – 5h30
