Community
Join our community
One of the biggest draw cards of our school is the warm, welcoming and supportive community. We view our school community as our second family, and our open-door policy to families means everyone can enjoy being involved with playgroup to festivals and even volunteering in classrooms.
FESTIVALS and EVENTS based on the six Noongar seasons
-
Birak
In Birak we celebrate with an open day at the end of Term 4, which is held on a Saturday with live music, fun events and great food made by the children.
-
Bunuru
Our beach festival on a school day early in Term 1 makes the most of the beautiful sunny weather and ties in with our ‘Oceans’ focus for this season. We beach comb, fish, swim and play games on the sand.
-
Djeran
At the end of Term one we celebrate nature’s bounty with our Djeran festival which focuses on the harvest from our vegie gardens and the return of the salmon to our shores.
-
Makuru
Held on a Saturday evening at the end of Term 2, our Makuru festival is a highlight for most families. With shared song, a forest lantern walk and storytelling by the fire it is a special occasion for the community to come together to ward off the winter cold.
-
Djilba
In Djilba we are so happy to see the wildflowers blossoming and the birds nesting and our festival at the end of Term 3 reflects this with a hand built nest for the whole school to fit in beautifully decorated with flowers.

Kambarang
The Action Packed Kambarang festival is our unique take on the traditional sports day, with seasonal activities, a dance party and the much anticipated rainbow run!
