A Word From the Principal

Another term over and we finished it off with 'Karingal Heights Has Got Talent'. It was great to see how talented our children are and I would like to thank the children who sent in videos of themselves and their talent. We had singers, dancers, musicians, magicians and someone who could touch his nose with his tongue. 

Congratulations to Michael G, Ryder K and Islay who were judged the winners. We hope they enjoy their special lunch. 

We are all looking forward to hopefully seeing all of the children at the beginning of term 4.

Stay safe,

Kerryn Riley and the staff at KHPS.
