So so impressed with this school and all the staff. Wonderful!
What fun! I love this school.
Term 3 at Buxton PS finished with adventure and excitement!
Students either travelled to Phillip Island for a three day camp with our friends from Zeerust Primary School, Australia, Wunghnu Primary School and Dookie Primary/State School No 1527 or had a 'camp at school' experience with outdoor adventure activities, an excursion to the Melbourne Museum and the ELF Reading Day Book Parade.
Thank you to Mrs W, Mr Neff, Mr K and all the staff from the four schools who took great care of the students.
Special thanks to Hayley C and Katrina for taking time away from their own families to come to camp, and to Mrs H for organising great activities for the non campers with help from Jack, Sue and Jo.
We are incredibly proud of how our Buxton kids behaved on camp. They were polite, considerate, made friends with students from the other schools, were able to rise to challenges and bounce back from set backs. Camps give students a chance to shine in ways that we don't usually get to see back at school and they are so worthwhile.
Enjoy this video snapshot of camp and make sure to check out our other post with highlights of the activities for the non campers.
Rest up over the holidays everyone, you have earned it!
