Our Pre-Primary students were delighted to find two Southern Boobook Owls in the bushland this week. It is most likely that they have been enjoying our bushland environment over the summer holidays. Over the past few summers we have observed that they have made the school their home but once school resumes they disappear.
Mrs Cogger found out that the owls were back and she was quick to take a photo of them.

Monday 2nd June – WA Day
Western Australia (WA) Day is held on the first Monday in June each year and is a state holiday only. It commemorates the foundation of the Swan River Colony near Perth by European settlers in 1829, although sightings and landings occurred as far back as 1616. Originally Albany, on the south coast, was to be the capital of WA but better resources for shipping and farming were found on the Swan River so Perth became the capital.
WA Day was previously known as Foundation Day but, to recognise the Aboriginal people as the original owners of the land, the name was changed in April 2012.
WA was settled as a free colony, unlike some other parts of Australia like New South Wales and Port Arthur. It was the only British colony in Australia established with land grants to settlers. The settlers were given land in proportion to the quantity of people and goods they brought to the colony and were only given the full title to their land when it had been improved enough to be considered established and sustaining.
Events on the weekend of the public holiday include the WA Day Plate, a horse-racing event on the Saturday at Belmont Park; the WA Citizen of the Year Award for categories like Youth, Community, Business, Arts etc; and community BBQs around the state sponsored by local businesses.
Tuesday 3rd June – Staff PD Aboriginal Cultural Immersion Program
Congratulations to Jordana, Mia and Georgia who participated in the Perth Weetbix Tryathlon on Sunday 30th March – a fabulous effort girls! The event is held at Langley Park in East Perth and starts with a swim in the Swan River, followed by a ride and run on the specially designed Weet-Bix Kids TRYathlon course. It is always great to hear about children from our school who are using their time to keep fit, to have fun and to set themselves a personal challenge. Way to go girls!
