A Message from the Principal
ANZAC Day Commemoration
Thank you to the NPS families, students and staff who led our ANZAC Day assembly today. A special thank you to Shane Jenkins who Acknowledged Country, Bernadette Odzierejko who recited On this Hallowed Day, Russell Smidt who played The Last Post and The Rouse and Sheridan McLeod who recited The Ode. In our first whole school assembly of the year students reflected on the time all Australians have been given on 25 April each year to remember those who have served and continue to contribute to our wonderful country.



Best Wishes Karrina
Many of you will know Karrina, our Business Manager who has been a huge part of our school community for a number of years. This week Karrina has commenced in a new Business Manager position. NPS thanks Karrina for her many years of dedication to our school and we wish her well with her career progression.
Commencing in week 3, we welcome Di Champion to Ngunnawal Primary School. Di has worked in ACT schools for many years and will be a wonderful addition to our administration team.
School Vision
During term 1 our staff have been working together to develop a shared understanding of key terminology in our school vison statement. These desirable attributes have shaped the development of our collective commitments which describe the collaborative tasks and interpersonal skills we bring to working as a team to ensure all students succeed.
