Book Week

This week we are celebrating Book Week at our school. This year's theme is 'Book Safari' and Mrs Nash and the children have enjoyed dressing up the library to reflect the theme.

Today the students are participating in activities relating to the short-listed books, purchasing books from the Book Fair, having a sausage sizzle and then in the afternoon they will have a mini Safari where they will hunt for 'treasure' using clues.

Exeter Wins Premier's Debating Challenge Regional Final!

Evie, Mark, India & Finlay are the Illawarra/South East Debating Champions after competing at the Debating Camp held in Batemans Bay this week. They were the only team from a small school and overcame teams from Illaroo Rd PS, Minnamurra PS and Moss Vale PS to win the final debate.

This is quite an achievement and we are very proud of them. This is another example of the opportunities provided at Exeter for our students.

Sorry we have been away...

Due to a nasty virus infecting my computer, I have been unable to update our blog for some time (as can be seen!)

Hopefully all is now well and we can update you on the many wonderful achievements of our students in recent times.

Well done Evie, Finlay and India!
