Defence School Mentor News
Welcome to 2025 and an especially warm welcome to our new Defence students and families.
We have enjoyed some time playing games, crafting and beading at Defence Kids Club and it’s a delight to see our older students introducing and welcoming new students to the joys of kids club fun.
A reminder that Defence Kids Club is held every Tuesday and Wednesday (2nd break) in the Year 1/2 breakout area. We’d love to have all Defence students join us.
Parents, I’m always contactable via email if you have any queries about the Defence Support program or ways I can assist you.
Looking forward to a great year together.
