Community Council Update
On Wednesday, November 29, 2025, the Community Council convened to discuss several important topics. Below are key updates from the meeting.
Volunteer Shout out to the outgoing Chairperson
Thank you, Max Rixe, parent from 1B for the enormous contribution and dedicated volunteer service as the Community Council Chairperson over the past year. Your leadership and direction, endless hours of commitment and hard work greatly benefited the Community Council and school community, and we truly appreciate the significant and positive impact you have had during your time in this volunteer role.
Welcome to the incoming Chairperson
We sincerely thank Leonie Wise, parent from 6M, for stepping forward to serve as our new Community Council Chairperson. We are excited to welcome her to this important role.
Upcoming changes within the school
Thank you, families, for sharing your curiosity, concerns and questions with the Community Council members.
Please know that at the Community Council meeting there was an acknowledgement of the many questions/concerns from parents regarding the upcoming changes within the school e.g. increasing student numbers and subsequent impact on classroom allocation, increasing student numbers and capacity to fit all students in the hall, etc.
In response the concerns have been noted in the Community Council meeting minutes, and we have voiced your concerns to the school executive team. In addition, we encourage all families to continue checking the weekly school newsletter for updates from the Principal and Assistant Principal for progress updates.
Families, thank you for the communication. We value your input. Please keep this good communication happening!
