Once again our students have perfomed with distinction. Earlier last month a team of six represented Spreydon at the Literacy quiz. Only a few points separated the top teams and we managed a very creditable fourth placing. I watched our pupils during the night and their concentration and well controlled behaviour never faltered. Well done our literacy quiz team! Our thanks also to the team of parents who offered their support on the night and to our hard working staff. I know the staff members are very relieved to pass on the rather thankless organisation burden to others. In my experience, and speaking to these staff members, this organisational hard work is too often overlooked. A hearty thank you for all your efforts on behalf of all the competitors in this effort.

Today we had a crazy dress day. Some of our pupils [and the staff] are amazing. We had everything from coloured hair, jump suits through to ballerina costumes. It is always refreshing to have something as colourful as a dress up day, today was no exception. I believe we enjoy the dress up even more because we have such a strong ethic associated with our school uniform and the pride we have in wearing them.
