    Our Primary students enjoyed a musical incursion with JAM Band - Just Add Music, with lots of singing, dancing and music!
    JAM Band encouraged our students to "just add music" to every part of their lives. Some lucky students (and teachers!) even had the chance to wear fun costumes and join the band on-stage!

    Why do schools always have pupil free days and school closure days around the Adelaide show weekend?

    Does this include the pre school?
