This term saw the continuation of the whole-school swimming program at Larrakeyah Primary. Over the course of the term, class groups have participated in a dedicated two week program designed to develop student skills in water appreciation, safety and swimming and survival techniques.
At the end of Term 3 our school community enjoyed a fabulous concert put on by our students at the Darwin Entertainment Centre. Our concert, Home Sweet Home Darwin, celebrated the events, history, lifestyle and culture that makes our home such a unique place.
With the program now successfully running for over a year, let’s catch up with Kiri Marschall, Senior Teacher and Quest Program Coordinator, to learn more about how Quest has developed in the lead up to the Quest Expo for 2019.
