The children were delighted to hear the jingle of the ice-cream van as it pulled into Togher N.S. The children were soon enjoying their  ice-cream cones to celebrate the full reopening of our school. Many thanks to our wonderful Parents Association for facilitating this lovely celebration treat.

The younger children were delighted to be back to school and they were even more delighted to find that they have the entire school yard to themselves. They were determined to take full advantage of all the extra space.

Take a look at ten tips from the Department’s National Educational Psychological Service for parents on supporting your child’s daily routine.

The children in the Junior room really enjoyed their webinar on Farm Safety. The children learnt how to recognise some of the safety signs on a typical farm, creating a farm safety checklist  and learning the behavioural signs shown by animals, including bulls, horses and dogs. The children are really looking forward to our next webinar on farm machinery safety.

To limit the spread of Covid 19 we have made many changes to the way we operate as a school. Please click on our video below to see some of the new controls we have in place.
