Events at Shortland Public School
School events play a vital role in bringing learning to life and shaping our vibrant school culture. They give students opportunities to build confidence, connect with others, and celebrate their achievements. Events also allow families to be actively involved in school life and share in their child's educational journey.
Our school event may include:
- School orientation days
- Sports carnivals
- Open Day and school tours
- Harmony Week and Book Week activities
- Excursions and incursions
- Performances, concerts, and school productions
- Fundraising, charity and community events
- Award assemblies
- Graduation ceremonies and other celebrations.
We warmly encourage families to participate and be part of these special moments.
