PRINCIPAL’S REPORT

DATES TO REMEMBER

COSfest 2018 This year, classes and groups of students have worked very hard to create a digital media piece as a part of our Community of Schools film competition. It was particularly hard to choose the finalists for our school due to the high quality of the entries. The categories this year are slightly different to previous years. I am pleased to announce that the RPS finalists in the following categories are: K-2 = Click Clack Moo by K Purple 3-4 = The Mask of True Power by 4/5

Scarlet 5-6 = The Lego Movie by Will C,

Geoffrey & Kory Our whole school community is invited to the COSfest viewing and awards presentation on Wednesday 21st November starting from 5pm (please see individual viewing times for relevant sessions). Please see the invite below. Also, please note – if you are intending to come, please RSVP as per the invite.
