H.E.A.R.T Card Rewards

Each and every day all the clever learners at Welcome Bay School work towards earning H.E.A.R.T cards. After four weeks of banking their cards we had our very first "Rewards Afternoon". To spend our H.E.A.R.Ts we had to work out how many we had to spend and then make tricky decisions as to which activities to select.

Congratulations to all learners in Take Flight for earning enough H.E.A.R.Ts for at least one reward.

What other choices could we have for our next H.E.A.R.T. rewards day?


What are you going to do at school to earn more H.E.A.R.T. cards for the next 5 weeks?

Principals Challenge - Speedway

Today the Sunlive mini stock made a pit stop at our school and we got to get up close for a really good look. Mr House sped around the field in it and even did a few skids. We think he's going to win again this year.

Remember that children get in free this weekend so try and come along and cheer on Mr House.

It is one of the most important things you can do with your children.
