Week 11 at Bull Creek: Pizza Party & NAIDOC Week Assembly 🖤💛❤️
It has been a great final week of Term 2 at the Bull Creek site. This week, students who consistently demonstrated our school values and virtues were recognised with a well-deserved PBS Pizza Party. 🍕
Today, students also participated in a whole-school assembly recognising NAIDOC Week, celebrated during the first week of July each year. The assembly provided an opportunity to acknowledge and celebrate the history, culture and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, while encouraging students to learn more about First Nations cultures and histories and recognise the world's oldest continuing living cultures.
Congratulations to all of our students on another fantastic term. We wish everyone a safe and enjoyable holiday break!

🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️ Cross Country Success at Fremantle LDC! 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️
Our students have proudly participated in cross country events across all three of our school sites this term, demonstrating determination, resilience and fantastic sportsmanship.
Congratulations to every student who took on the challenge of the long-distance courses. Fremantle LDC students also proudly represented Bull Creek and Beeliar Primary Schools, and we look forward to seeing our Caralee students compete in the interschool cross country event next term.
Well done to all of our runners—you have represented our school with pride and made our all of communities incredibly proud! 👏🏅

A big congratulations to Claire Younger, who runs our Breakfast Club five days a week for our FLDC and Caralee students, for receiving an award recognising her exceptional care and compassion as a volunteer in our Breakfast Program. This is a well-deserved acknowledgement of the positive impact she makes each morning for our students and community. We also acknowledge Margaret Reynolds, who generously volunteers her time and has done for many years, to this program and has also been recognised with an award, which she will receive soon.

🌟 Happy School Officer Day! 🌟

Today we celebrate and thank our incredible school officers and support staff for the invaluable contribution they make to our school community every day.

Your dedication, professionalism, flexibility, and care help create positive learning environments where our students and families can thrive. Whether supporting students, assisting staff, welcoming families, or keeping our school running smoothly, your impact is felt in countless ways.

A special thank you to our wonderfully creative P&C member, Sheryl, for the beautiful appreciation gifts that helped us acknowledge and celebrate our amazing team today. Your thoughtfulness and generosity are greatly appreciated.

Thank you to all our school officers and support staff for the difference you make each and every day. We are grateful for all that you do! 💙

📚✨ National Simultaneous Storytime 2026 ✨📚

Yesterday our students joined thousands of schools and libraries across Australia to take part in National Simultaneous Storytime 2026, celebrating a shared love of books and storytelling.

Students enjoyed the story Luna Roo, read aloud by special guest readers, while buddy classes also watched the authors reading online together. It was a fantastic opportunity for students to connect through a shared literacy experience across year levels and our campuses. 💛

Following the story, students engaged in a wide range of fun and active learning experiences linked to the book. Activities included character studies, puppet making, soccer skill development, and hands-on STEM challenges where students worked together to design and build soccer goals using sticks. Many students also enthusiastically tested their goalkeeping and scoring skills!

It was wonderful to see such creativity, collaboration and enjoyment across our school as students brought the story to life through play, inquiry and teamwork. 📖🌟

🐞 MINIBEAST INCURSION 🐛
Our Year 1 and 2 students from all three sites gathered yesterday at the Willagee Campus for the Eco Action Minibeast Incursion.
Students enjoyed a hands-on experience exploring fascinating minibeasts, including stick insects, spiny leaf insects, giant burrowing cockroaches, beetles and worms. The incursion was a great introduction to their upcoming non-fiction unit, where they will write a report on a minibeast of their choice as part of our whole-school Language Enriched Talk for Writing program.
