Halloween Spirit At Arlington
A Day Full of Creative Costumes and Halloween Fun!
Arlington looked a little different today, with all sorts of colourful characters, spooky creatures and familiar faces making their way around campus.
Our students certainly embraced the Halloween spirit, bringing plenty of personality, creativity and a little mischief to the day. We even spotted a few students dressed as crewmates from the popular game Among Us.
It was lovely to see everyone getting into the fun, with plenty of smiles, laughter and some wonderfully creative costumes on display!

A Special Morning Tea For World Teachers’ Day
Celebrating the Wonderful Educators Who Make Preshil So Special
There was a little extra sweetness at Preshil this week as our teachers came together for a special morning tea in celebration of World Teachers’ Day!
With a lovely spread of homemade treats, beautiful flowers and heartfelt messages from students, it was a wonderful opportunity to show our appreciation for the incredible people who make such a difference in our school community.
A particularly lovely touch were the handmade cards from our students, filled with colourful drawings and thoughtful words of thanks.
To all our wonderful teachers, thank you for the care, creativity and dedication you bring to Preshil each and every day. We hope you felt as appreciated as you truly are!

A New Home For Our Cubby Tools!
Following the renovation of our much-loved Treehouse, Arlington’s cubby-making tools needed a new home.
We now have a garden shed, and today Greg was busy building a dedicated tool wall to go inside, complete with hanging spaces for hammers, saws and other cubby-making essentials.
With everything organised and ready to go, our young builders will soon be back to doing what they do best: imagining, creating and building!
