Today was a special day for 4 of our school leaders and Mrs Smith who represented our school at the community bbq in the presence of His Majesty King Charles III and Queen Camilla. Our students were also honoured to meet some of their sporting and creative heroes at the event.

Our student leaders were honoured to receive an invitation to the official opening of @parracity ‘s latest community, cultural and civic building, PHIVE. What an amazing resource for our community.

@esinnott17 @NSWEducation @daskkiphil @dizdarm Love it :)

Our new mural by Allan McKenzie is so fun! The students and staff at The Rail had an amazing week with Allan and his dad learning about their culture, hearing the dig and watching this amazing artwork come to life. Look him up on his website! @NSWEducation @daskkiphil @dizdarm

It is with great sadness that today we farewell our amazing Community Hub leader Richa. Ri has been an incredible asset to our school and wider community and will be truly missed. We hope you return to us soon, Ri! @CommunityHubWPS

Our students will return to school with a new learning, gathering and sharing space. Our Yarning Circle will provide our students and community continued opportunities to connect with each other and Indigenous culture. @NSWEducation

Some students started their holidays early as Year 3 transformed their rooms into significant locations to showcase their learning in geography this term. Visitors were welcomed to a kelp forest, The Great Barrier Reef and The Daintree Rainforest.

We love our new playground space!

Congratulations to the staff and students at Westmead PS for 'consistently delivering high progress in NAPLAN'.
