Our Prep girls’ journey through their first year at Barbreck has been exciting and filled with fun and educational experiences. They have enthusiastically embraced the challenges and dove headfirst into every opportunity.  

The Prep class quickly learned one of Barbreck’s most treasured qualities is the unique relationships formed across Year levels through our Buddies Program and House events. These connections helped them develop crucial life skills and transition into Junior School. 

The students’ love for school activities was evident as they enthusiastically participated in their first school event, the annual Teddy Bear’s Picnic. They shared their beloved bears and snacks on the Village Green, marking the beginning of an exciting year. 

Other memorable days included Olympic Day and Wellbeing Day. Possibly the most unforgettable event for the entire year was the 100 Days of Prep celebration. The girls arrived excitedly dressed in their pyjamas, ready to engage in activities. The most popular activity, as voted by the girls, was pom-pomming the ‘100 Days’ display, which stood as a colourful reminder of their milestone within the classroom. 

Throughout the year, our Preps showed significant growth and development, both academically and personally. Prep at Barbreck was a year filled with learning, joy, and building lifelong memories.
