EDUCATION CELEBRATION: Students lead and step up
THE SCHOOL year is done, and it’s time to say a big farewell to our graduating students, at Tarnagulla Primary School.
This group of students, Samuel Buckingham; Nevaeh Long; Olivia Watters. have been truly amazing and have done wonderful things for the school.
This class didn’t just attend school—they helped run it!
They oversaw our assemblies, making sure they ran smoothly and were fun for everyone. They were also Playground Heroes.
You could find one of them organising games for all the whole school to play during recess and lunch.
They made sure everyone felt included and had a great time playing together.
As well as being great role models every single day. They were kind, helpful, and always showed younger students how to behave well.
The graduates worked incredibly hard this year. All three had big gains in learning: Because they stayed focused and put in so much effort, they made huge improvements in their schoolwork. They are ready to be successful high school students!
They didn’t just work hard inside the school; they had fun outside of it too!
Making New Friends … they joined in activities with local small schools cluster, like swimming days, athletics, cross country and getting their artistic flair happening with a performing arts day.
They met lots of new friends and were great ambassadors for our school.
Beach Camp: They had a fantastic time at their camp at Cottage by the Sea in Queenscliff. They loved the activities and made lots of happy memories by the beach.
The Class of 2025 leaves Tarnagulla Primary School better than they found it.
And the school is celebrating the kind, smart, and hardworking young people they have become.
