Mother's Day Morning Tea
Thank you to parents, carers and special visitors who were able to attend our Mother's Day Morning Tea on Friday 12th May. It was a beautiful day to be sharing a picnic and spending time with the special people in our lives. We hope you enjoyed the morning as much as we did. Keep an eye out for further communication later this year as Father's Day approaches.
National Walk Safely to School Day
This year marks the 24th anniversary of National Walk Safely to School Day. Championed by the Pedestrian Council Australia, this initiative aims to raise awareness of the health, road safety, transport and environmental benefits that regular walking, or alternative active transport (especially to and from school) can provide for the long term wellbeing of our children.
Thank you to the children and families who walked safely to school with us on Friday. We were joined by special guests, including:
- ABC Canberra
- ACT Brumbies
- ACT Policing
- Canberra Raiders Victor the Viking
- Cappie the University of Canberra Capitals mascot
- Caribou CBR Brave
- Kristen & Nige from MIX
- Transport Canberra and City Services Directorate
- WIN Television
A special thanks to the Ngunnawal Primary School P&C President, Tara Huntly for liaising with the above organisations to make the morning so successful. Thanks also to our SRC and teachers that participated in the morning and assisted with the planning.

Ngunnawal Primary School are taking part in ‘Recycle, Earn and Play’. Help us on our sustainability journey by collecting bread bags and bringing them to school, which we can redeem on new sports gear for our school. There is a collection box at the front office, for your child to drop of any type of bread bag. The rule of thumb is that if it has contained bread of some sort and is a soft plastic, then it’s a bread bag. If it hasn’t contained bread, then it’s not a bread bag. We will be collecting bags up until the 7th of July.
Active travel program evaluation
Transport Canberra and City Services (TCCS) is undertaking an evaluation of the school active travel programs, including the Ride or Walk to School, Active Streets for Schools and School Crossing Supervisor programs.
As part of the evaluation, TCCS is requesting school communities to complete a short online survey about their travel habits to and from school. The survey can be accessed through this link
TCCS has engaged First Person Consulting (FPC) – a Melbourne-based evaluation consultancy – to manage the evaluation and the surveys. FPC will not be collecting any identifiable information from anyone completing the survey, and all responses will be kept confidential and anonymous.
TCCS appreciates your support to evaluate these programs to continue to enhance the program offerings to schools.
The Fred Hollows Humanity Award recognises Year 6 students who make a positive difference in their community. It celebrates students who show compassion, integrity and kindness in their everyday lives.
Teachers, principals, parents, and members of the community are all encouraged to nominate. Nominations can be submitted online through the Fred Hollows Humanity Award 2023 - Nomination Form.
