Welcome back for 2009
What a great start to the year!!!!! Children seem very happy to be back even though the weather has been quite warm. Our new preps have started and several new people to the school started in other classes. There is an enthusiastic buzz around the school and l absolutely LOVE having classrooms downstairs.
We have new staff in the school... Kane (Prep), Lucy (4/5/6) and returning to BEPS are Kerrie (Prep) and Chris (1/2/3) and they have settled in well and in true BEPS spirit.
