PRINCIPAL’S REPORT 

Cultural Day 

We ended last term with our whole school Cultural Day. This was an excellent display of our students’ amazing work in the Crea ve 

and Performing Arts. Students and visitors took a trip around the world as we visited each classroom arrayed in the art and culture of 

a different  country.  From  glowing  Japanese  lanterns  to  Frida Kahlo  artwork, with Hawaiian dancers  and  an Abba‐solutley  special 

tribute to Sweden, our classes had it all.   

 

Later in the Hall we enjoyed performances by our school band, rock band, choir and cultural dance group.  

We  also  celebrated  our  inaugural  Archiborough  Prize  contestants.  These  students  produced  amazing  portraits  to  represent  an 

individual who was important in their life. Our winners were presented with beau ful art and cra  packs.

A er a delicious morning tea from the Year Six cake stall, classes took turns to have their photograph taken 

with  the  giant  sea  eagle  Biraban.  Created  from  the  handprints  of  every  student  at Hillsborough  Public 

School, Biraban will be permanently displayed in our school hall. Students later returned to classrooms and 

enjoyed more crea ve arts ac vi es during the a ernoon.
