High Flyers for the Week.

At the end of each term we have a very special “Celebration Assembly” where five students from each Hub are celebrated for exemplifying the characteristics of each of the five birds that make up the Welcome Bay Learner. We are so proud of these students and really enjoyed sharing morning tea with them and their families on the last day of term.  We look forward to celebrating more students at the end of this term.
