Welcome to 2020! Welcome back to our new school year of 2020. I would like to take this opportunity to send our sincere thoughts to everyone effected by the bushfires and join the rest of Australia in thanking the tireless efforts of the firefighters, volunteers, community members and anyone else that has contributed to the bushfire tragedy. It has demonstrated the Australian values and of coming together to support one another in times of hardship. I would like to warmly welcome all our students and families back to Walbundrie Public School. It was wonderful to see all the happy faces back at school and we have loved hearing about their adventures over the holidays. We even have some students that are missing teeth and those that have grown and changed. Our Year 6 students Hannah, Angus and Cody begin their leadership positions at school and we wish them a successful final year. Changes in the Classroom Following on from our successful restructure last year, we will continue with the two Upcoming Events classroom setup. The classes will again be based on needs, not necessarily year Friday 7 February groups. This ensures that each student’s needs are being met at the correct level.
