From the Principal’s Desk – 15 November, 2018
Dear Parents,
This week saw the Early Years and Junior Primary students perform in their annual concerts – what an incredibly wonderful feeling of pride and admiration I had watching these youngsters just go for it and have a complete ball.
I thoroughly enjoyed the various miss steps in the dance moves, swaying in the wrong direction, singly loudly and in some cases completely off key…….. but even more enjoyable and heart-warming was the confidence, positive attitude and energy radiating from each student – this is something special that one simply cannot put a price on.
All of this just made me marvel at how precious and special our children are at this age. The innocence and enthusiasm with which each of them embraced their shows and played to the crowd was palpable. I have often stated that here is nothing more precious than watching children (of any age) sing, dance and act – an activity that directly results in an increase in self-confidence and the validation of their abilities and talents. A very necessary thing in today’s world.
I am extremely proud of every student who participated in ‘Thrassville’ and ‘The Lorax’ productions, and most grateful to the incredible staff who worked so hard to bring out the best in each of their students. Thank you to each and every one of you.
Enjoy the last performance tonight and to the cast of The Lorax – break a leg!
Kind regards,
Grant Ruskovich
