Events

School events bring learning to life and help shape our school culture. They help students build confidence, connect with others and celebrate their progress. Events also give families a chance to be involved in school life and share in their child’s achievements. Our school ensures that all upcoming events are communicated effectively to parents and the wider school community through our school Facebook page and the parent calendar in Sentral.

Burke Ward Public School events may include:

school assemblies
sports carnivals
fundraising, charity and community events
Special event weeks eg, Harmony Week and Book Week events
excursions and incursions
performances, concerts or school productions
graduation and other celebrations.
school orientation days
open day and school tours
