Halloween Disco 2024
The GP room was decked out in frightfully fantastic decorations creating the perfectly haunted atmosphere. Many thanks to all the parents who volunteered their time and creative talents to transform the space and make it truly magical! The haunted photo booth was a highlight, allowing students to pose with friends in front of a spook-tac-ular background.
Students came in costumes, from witches and vampires to superheros and princesses. There was a great mix of spooky and sweet! Everyone enjoyed showing off their costumes and spooky moves whilst dancing to disco songs. The students had a blast playing ghostly games such as Musical statues, Limbo and the classic game of Corners.
At the end of the Disco, each student recieved a lollie treat bag to take home! Such a wonderful and fun eerie extravaganza!
Henny Penny Hatchery
One of the most exciting parts was getting to name each new chick. Each time a chick hatched, students eagerly waited to see what name was drawn from the hat. P1D is proud to introduce their little flock of chicks, Chloe, Cookie, Chicken Nugget, Jaxon, Lucky, Love Heart, Chick, Finn and Kris!
Another highlight was when the students had the chance to gently hold the chicks, bringing big smiles to their faces. This hands on experience allowed them to feel the warmth and softness of the chicks.
P1D were sad to see the chicks go on Friday, but were glad to have had such a fun and educational experience in their classroom!

Bunnings volunteers helping to add colour to the school | |
| Earlier in the week, Lyn Kellow from Bunnings Frankston came in with 4 other volunteers to help do some work around the school. The volunteers were from different Bunnings stores around the Peninsula. I would like to thank them on behalf of the community for donating plants, paint and time to the school. A lot of the school community have commened on the works and really like the added colour in the playground. I would also like to thank Taubmans Paint for donating the paint for the garden beds and sheds. |   |
