Perth Writer's Festival

As part of a new initiative that Perth Writer's Festival are running as part of their 2017 Family Day, they are on the hunt for 8 young curators between the ages of 10-12 to take over one of the stages. The successful applicants will work with a group of authors and have the opportunity to design sessions for them.


The link is below if any of you are interested in applying.

Rabbit Proof Fence - please email if you wish your child to not watch!

Dear Parents,


As part of the History Curriculum this semester, the students have been learning about democracy and how certain community groups in time have experienced  limited citizenship rights. We have organised for the students to view the Rabbit Proof fence movie which focuses on the stolen generation of Indigenous Australians. This move is rated PG as it has adult themes of child abduction. Please let one of the Year 6 teachers know if you feel uncomfortable about your child watching this movie as we can organise another activity for them in the library.
