2021-WHAT AN EXTRAORDINARY YEAR AT CHELSEA PRIMARY!    

We cannot believe how fast this year has gone! What another fantastic year it’s been at Chelsea Primary School working with such a great group of people…..even though it was a strange and often testing one!

Remote learning was again a challenge, but in the true ‘Chelsea Way’ we got through it due to the amazing partnership between home and school.

We are so fortunate have such wonderful students, staff and community who all make Chelsea PS a special place. 

The success of Chelsea PS just doesn’t happen by chance – it stems from the collaboration and community spirit that is created when students, staff and parents come together on a shared journey. We would therefore like to thank all members of our school community-School Council, our Green fingered Team, fundraisers, grant seekers and working bee-ers for their support this year.

We especially would like to acknowledge our amazing teaching staff for their commitment to building such strong learning programs and the passion they have in supporting students’ academic, creative, and cultural experiences and wellbeing. You have gone above and beyond this year!

Thank you to the Administration team (the A-Team) -Jacky Russell, Jacqui Waltzer, Ledam N. and now Tania Alford, for ensuring our accountabilities are met, our visitors are greeted with a smiling face and operations run smoothly every day.

To our dynamic student support team–Michelle, Tanya, Sue B, Tamlyn, Bernie, Marie, Gab, Bec, Revere, Lorella, Katie, Karina, Liv, Jacinta, Holly and Aimee, thank you for the amazing kindness and support you provide in classrooms for students; as well as helping in sick bay, the garden, Breakfast Club the Chill Out Room, cooking lessons and lunchtime programs and supervision. 

We would like to thank Margaret, Barbara and Andy for keeping our students safe as they cross the road to school. (Always with a smile)

To all our year 6 students who are leaving Chelsea PS, we wish you all the very best in the next chapter of your schooling. You have grown into a mature and responsible group of young people. It has been great getting to know you all and see you shine and embrace challenges and differences positively. Wednesday night’s graduation was a brilliant celebration of your years at primary school. We all look forward to your return visit early next year.

We can imagine many Year 6 parents can remember dropping their child off on their very first day of Primary School and now you are very close to seeing them move onto their next school chapter. There is a lot of reflection, celebration (and some tears) and memories they will never forget. Thank you to our Year 6 families for their support over their years at Chelsea.
