FRENCH DAY
A massive thank you to Madame Snow for all of her hard work and organisation to deliver another wonderful French Day at EPS! The school was a sea of red, white and blue as we celebrated all things French. This year the event aligned perfectly with the Paris Olympics enhanching the experience. The students partipated in a special assembly, boules competition, sampling crepes and a special performance from Philippe Carroll: ‘From Paris to Provence. From Piaf to Bretagne’. Philippe presented a vibrant and colourful journey through regional French music and dance.

2024 Parent / Caregiver / Guardian Opinion Survey (PCGOS)
The PCGOS allows schools to actively engage with families, and provides an important indicator of how well our school community is meeting the needs of students. The survey is designed to assist schools in gaining an understanding of families’ perceptions of school climate, student behaviour, and student engagement.
Next week every EPS family will be sent a link to complete the survey. Your feedback is much appreciated and highly valued.
HOMELESSNESS WEEK
The theme for Homelessness Week 2024 is “Homelessness Action Now” During the week homelessness services and community groups raise awareness of the impact of homelessness, and the solutions needed to end homelessness, and advocate for change.
