The scholastic achievements of Parkview Public School students Kindergarten-Year 6 were acknowledged at the school's 45th Annual Presentation Night held recently at the Leeton High School MPC.
Complemented by performances from the school's band and choir as well as live renditions of the national anthem and the Parkview PS School song, the audience of around 700 community members were entertained as children's scholastic endeavours as well as sporting and cultural achievements from throughout the year were acknowledged.
School Principal Travis Irvin thanked the community for another great year. "We have had another amazing year at Parkview Public School, thanks in no small part to the wonderful partnership we enjoy between the school and the community which underpins what we are striving to achieve for our students."
Year 6 students Katelyn Mills was bestowed the honour of Dux of the School, while Riley Bradshaw was awarded the Sportsperson of the Year award. The major cultural awards were split between Emily Jennings & Taylah Aliendi (Vocalists), Charlie Longhurst (Instrumentalist) and Zoe Locke (Dance).
