The 2022 School Year is almost complete, we thank all students, staff and families for their contributions towards supporting learning, wellbeing and facilities at Lucindale Area School. Dare we say it but as Covid is having less and less impact, bring on the 2023 school year with a focus on creating and maintaining as many positive and supportive learning experiences as possible as we return to many of our past traditions and events such as Presentation Night.

With Year 12s now complete and all works submitted for moderation, we wish our Year 12s all the best with the next stage of their lives and hope they are each happy with the results they will receive on the 19th of December to recognise 13 years of schooling. We thank the staff and students who were able to celebrate the completion of the students’ Secondary Schooling with the Graduation Dinner at the Avenue Inn last Friday night.

With less than 46 days till Xmas and things getting back to normal, it has been awesome to hear the students from the Year 3&4 Class discussing their adventures on the High Ropes Courses and their sleepover from last week. Having the chance to support the Year 5&6 Class as a bus driver while learning all about the volcano fields spread across Victoria and the South East was also amazing. I would like to thank all the volunteers, school staff and our students for a wonderful couple of days.

What a wonderful start to the term although with a mixed bag of weather across the country. Well done to our Ag team and our sponsors over the school break and the first week back with some our Year 10s taking part in the Mount Gambier Show. With Covid almost a thing of the past, it is great to be having parents back on site, volunteer training up and running, camps and excursions back on track and a busy but rewarding Term 4 rolling out.  

Dear Parents and Caregivers,

The Little Mermaid performance, originally scheduled for Tuesday this week, has been postponed until next Thursday 27th October at 9:15 am.
Students from Reception to Year 8 will attend, along with children from the kindergarten.
Our aim is to give students an experience of what ‘theatre’ is that encourages further participation in arts and theatre in the future. Alphashows’ performances are always memorable and high quality, and we look forward to this exciting event.

Kind regards

Jill Bedworth
