PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE

It has been great to have assemblies back, to gather the children outdoors in the sunshine and communicate as a group to recognise their achievments in all areas. Yesterday we were able to congratulate our swimmers for reaching both the North Shore Zone carnival and the Sydeny North Regional carnival. We also presented badges to our newly elected String Captains. Band Captains will be presented their badges at the Easter Band Breakfast concert.

YEAR 2 SWIMMING

Our Year 2 students have been busy attending a 2-week long School Swimming and Water Safety Program at Lane Cove Aquatic Centre. Students have been learning new skills, including water safety and survival, so they can continue to enjoy aquatic activities safely. Learning these techniques will allow our students to feel more confident and comfortable in the water.

With all the splashes and colourful accessories - the swimming program is putting a smile on our students’ faces! 

HARMONY DAY

On Monday 21st March 2022, Artarmon Public School celebrated Harmony Day and this year's Harmony Day message of 'Everyone Belongs' with a mufti day. Children came to school dressed in their traditional outfits or they wore a touch of orange. Traditionally, orange signifies social communication and meaningful conversations. It also relates to the freedom of ideas and encouragement of mutual respect.  
 
Children across the school may have engaged in activities, shared stories and information about their background in an effort to foster communication around diversity and inclusivity.
