Water Saving Tips
/Over the last 12 months, we have been raising money to fix out water tanks around the school.
Our Waste Warriors created some incredible tips for saving water at home and around the school.
Thank you to everyone who sent in raffle tickets for our Easter Raffle.
We raised $2,993!! This money is going towards fixing our Water Tanks so that our school can save water and be more sustainable.

Thank you to everyone who donated towards our Water Tank Fundraiser. We have raised $1,173 so far, which is an incredible amount! We still have a way to go, but you can follow the progress on our poster at the office.
We would like to acknowledge the Bunurong people of the Kulin Nation, who are the traditional custodians of the land on which Wheelers Hill Primary School rests.
We pay our respects to elders past, present and emerging, for they hold the memories, the traditions, the cultures and hopes of Aboriginal Australia.
