It has been a week of stunning performances.
Last evening our school dancers performed at the James Hay Theatre as part of their 'Dancing with the Stars'. What a performance - and these students were the youngest on stage! Congratulations for completing such a fine dance routine and being such super ambassadors for our school. A special thanks also to the staff and supporters who worked behind the scenes to ensure this event was completed so successfully.
Our Spellathon also has been a huge success and tomorrow we will hold a special Spellathon assembly to announce our prize winners. This will include classes as well as individuals. My thanks to everyone who has put in so much effort to make the event such a success.
In the next weeks our performance team will decide how to put the Spellathon funds to the best use for our students. We will advise you of our purchases as soon as practicable after this has been completed.
Once again, to all concerned, my thanks for your efforts and contributions to our school.

On Friday this week, our ambassadors, Ruby Richards and Angus Shorter, will be involved in a memorial ceremony for the late Miss Thelma Keele.
Miss Keele started teaching here in 1957 and remained on our staff for 32 years. Our records indicate Miss Keele was a 'friendly teacher who was always neat and tidy and was remembered for wearing nice coats and having lovely hair'
Our memorial ceremony will involve Miss Keele's relatives, along with former staff member Mr Paul Carlson, attending the school. During this visit we will plant a tree in a special plot next to our new staffroom and mark the placement with a plaque.
As 'relationships' is one of our key student values with its special obligations, I am sure our Spreydon students will understand the connection the school has with Miss Keele and how we are working to remember this special teacher.

Getting started
Welcome to our techie world!
We hope you join us as we make communicating easier.
This platform is a great chance for me to thank the amazing team at the school who continue to drive our ICT forward.
It's my first attempt at blogging so I will be endeavouring to post a few words here on a regular basis.
I look forward to seeing you when you are visiting the school.
