Thank you everyone for such a great semester. We are so proud of our students and what they have achieved already this year. Not only are they working well in the classroom, but our students are happy, friendly and respectful in the playground. Well done students of Waratah Public School. You are amazing, just like the fabulous staff that teach you every day. Stay safe and happy during the semester break, and we’ll see you all on Tuesday 19 July for your first day back. We will meet in the COLA at 9.00 am for a short morning assembly. NAIDOC DAY A big thank you to Miss Deer and Mrs Batcheldor for coordinating our NAIDOC day this year.
