Term 2 is very much a "working" term in schools, as we well and truly settle into the school year. During Term 2, we look forward to a number of events:

Our school's involvment in ANZAC Day will continue when we have our own school ANZAC service hosted by our school captains. We are also involved in the town ANZAC Service with our choir singing "Lest We Forget". This year, we have also been invited to the town's Dawn Service to recite an ANZAC poem.

We have a number of perfomances/visitng artists come along during the year. In May we have a performance called "Utter Nonsense" to entertain us.

A tradition which has developed over the last couple of years will continue in May, when we host a Mothers' Day Afternooon Tea. Students serve their mums (and grandmas) with a "Devonshire Tea" as a thank-you for all the wonderful things mums do.

Year 3 and 5 students will be challenging themselves to do their personal best in the National NAPLAN Literacy and Numeracy Tests which take place In May.

Later in the term, Year 5 and 6 students will commence their fortnightly winter sports program against district schools. Football, netball and softball are included in this program.

Our choir will be involved in the Shepparton Music Festival during the term. This is a great opportunity for the choir to perfrom in front of a large audience.

Our school will be commencing a review of our values, social skills and behavioural expectations during Term 2. We will be using the School-Wide Positive Behaviour Support framework to help us strengthen and broaden the successful areas of our exisitng programs and processes. We look forward to using the framework to re-assess our Tribes values of: mutual respect, appreciation, considered thinking, attentive listening and personal best.

To ensure the skills and enjoyment of last year's "Little Treasures" ceramics project continues into the future, we now have our own kiln in operation. We look forward to continuing our great pieces of ceramics art in the future.
