Aaron Blabey autographs our books
On Wednesday August 20, 2014, children's author Aaron Blabey visited our school to help celebrate book week.
Aaron performed his much loved books, including "Stanley Paste" and "Sunday Chutney", and he also showed us some of his new books which are not yet published. Everyone laughed at his new character Pig the pug dog and his antics!
The children were captivated by his story telling and his drawing skills. Aaron showed us how to draw Stanley Paste. Aaron donated his drawings to the school, which will be framed and hung in the library.
Aaron Blabey spent considerable time answering the children's questions. He inspired us all to continue writing and drawing.

St Andrew's Primary students recently won a $10,000 grant for our great work in sustainable practices! Students have been collecting recyclable containers and using the money to donate to local charities to help people in our community. What started as a Year 6 leadership initiative has now gone school-wide! We were able to put our grant money towards the new playground markings to help our students build a sense of belonging and to have fun playing with their friends.
