Tomorrow is a very exciting day as we welcome our new Reception children for their very first transition visit to Plympton Primary School!

We can’t wait to see your smiling faces, explore, play, and begin getting to know you as part of our school community. A special welcome from Ms Paula, who is so excited to meet each and every one of you.

See you tomorrow for the start of a wonderful journey! 💙💛

Some of our older students have been busy exploring the exciting world of 3D printing in the library! 🖨️✨

Thanks to the initiative and dedication of Sandi, who, with a special helper, took the time to learn how to use our 3D printer, interested students now have the fantastic opportunity to get hands-on with this technology twice a week during lunch times.

It’s wonderful to see students experimenting, creating, problem-solving, and building new skills with emerging technology. A huge thank you to Sandi for making this opportunity possible and inspiring our students to explore, design, and innovate! 👏

🍎 What a fantastic day of learning beyond the classroom! Today, students from Rooms 13.2, 13.7 and 13.8 are enjoying an incredible excursion to Lenswood for apple picking in the beautiful Adelaide Hills.

With sunshine, fresh country air and plenty of hands-on experiences, our students are exploring the journey from paddock to plate, learning where their food comes from and gaining a real-world understanding of food production, sustainability and life on a working orchard. Of course, the apple picking this afternoon will be a definite highlight! 🍏☀️

Experiences like these bring classroom learning to life in meaningful and memorable ways, helping students make authentic connections with the world around them.

A huge thank you to our staff and volunteers who helped make this wonderful learning opportunity possible!

What a wonderful morning we shared at our Mother’s Day Morning Tea today! 🌸

We were delighted to welcome around 40 mums, along with some of their children, who joined us for coffee, tea and a delicious snack. It was such a lovely opportunity for parents to mingle, connect and get to know one another in a relaxed and welcoming environment.

A very special thank you goes to our Events Committee and to staff for all the preparation, organisation and time they generously gave to make the morning such a success.

Happy Mother’s Day to all of the amazing mums, grandmothers and special women in our community — we hope you have a beautiful weekend celebrating! 💐
