Kukerin Primary School

• On Thursday, our Junior Room hosted the school assembly and did a fantastic job. The assembly performance was delightful and indicated a lot of time, effort and preparation in the lead up to the day. The performance was a rendition of ‘Sing a song of Sixpence’. The audience enjoyed watching the students having so much fun on stage. Well done!
• There has been some fascinating work taking place around our school that has largely been influenced by the theme of dinosaurs due to our excursion to Lake Grace Town Hall for the Erth’s Dinosaurs Zoo experience. It was fantastic to see the students all incredibly excited for the event.
• On Tuesday the Dumbleyung Police visited our school to deliver a presentation to our students on how to stay safe online. Sergeant Alby Van Den Berg facilitated the experience and helped to expand the students’ knowledge and awareness that matters.
