As some parents may be aware Mrs Bos had an unfortunate

accident during the third term holidays whilst holidaying in
Tasmania. A fall resulted in a broken shoulder which after a six
week healing period is now still not fully mobile and will see her
extend her sick leave for the remainder of the term. Mrs Prossor
will continue her role in Prep B till the end of the school year.
We hope to see Mrs Bos fully recovered to return in 2016,
