Heart of the School Award and Mr Rae's farewell

                               Heart of the School Award

Last Friday, one of our very special students was awarded the Heart of the School Award by Mr Callaghan - Patricia.  We are so very proud of who you are as a person and the kindness that you display towards others each and every day.  We are lucky to have you in the Pateman Pod.  Well done Patricia!



Mr Rae's Farewell

Friday was also special for another reason.  We said farewell to our caretaker of many years... Mr Paul Rae.

The Student Council decorated a throne that would be worthy of a king, and Mr Rae sat proudly during the assembly that was held in his honour.   Molly read from a slideshow that was made by his family and we learnt a lot more about his extraordinary history.
