NEW  OAKLEIGH SOUTH PRIMARY SCHOOL CELEBRATED 50 YEARS OF EDUCATIONAL EXCELLENCE 1958    - 2008
 
The afternoon included a display of photographs and memorabilia, musical items, Movie Maker presentations, tours of the school and afternoon tea.

Dr Marsh who established the Marsh Foundation, who attended Oakleigh South as a child ,was our guest speaker. The fMarsh Foundation raises funds and establishes facilities using recycled Australian medical supplies for the health services sector in Indonesia. The initiative began after the Marshes were among the first medicos on the devastating scene of the Bali bombings in 2002

NEW  Opening of the new Performing Arts Centre

We held the official opening of the new Performing Arts Centre (PAC) on Tuesday 29th April 2008. The Federal member for Hotham, The Honourable Simon Crean, performed the opening on behalf of the Federal Government, who funded 40% of the project via a $100,000 grant awarded through the Investing in Our Schools Programme.
Simon spoke highly of the school's commitment to Music and the Performing Arts. Simon toured the school and was impressed with the facilities and programs.


WORKING BEE
 
Thank you to all who supported the Twilight Working Bee on February 26th. It was great to see so many families working together on the various projects around the school.



PREP BBQ - A GREAT SUCCESS
 
The BBQ  for our new Preps and their parents was an outstanding success. The children had a great time, playing in the junior playground and being entertained by the music of Paul Jamieson.

This event provides an excellent opportunity to meet with other parents. The teachers also enjoyed the opportunity to meet and mix  in a relaxed and informal environment.
Thank you to the year 1 parents who provided the salads and Parent Group for organising the food and entertainment.
