Plans are currently underway for Surveyors Creek Public School’s 20th Anniversary, with a celebration taking place later in the year.

The festivities will be held on Saturday 5th November from 10:00am till 2:00pm, with the official ceremony commencing at 11:00am, at Surveyors Creek Public School in Glenmore Park.

Past and present families, staff and the community will be invited along for a picnic on the school’s oval. There will be food trucks in attendance and a photo/memory display in the hall. A formal ceremony will feature the opening of the school’s 10th Anniversary capsule, as well as the creation of their new capsule. Performances on the day will include K-2, 3-4 and 5-6 dance groups.

Surveyors Creek Public School has seen many changes in its 20-year history. It has grown from a small school of 142 students to 524 now. The playground has undergone work, with updated equipment for the students to utilise.

Teaching has also changed during this time, with the reliance on technology within lessons being conducted with the help of interactive whiteboards.

“I have enjoyed being a part of the Surveyors Creek Public School community since 2007 and have seen the school grow and change over this time. It has always been caring, generous and values education. I am now part of the school not only as a teacher, but as a parent with my two children now also attending Surveyors Creek Public School” said Nicole Franzke, Teacher at SCPS.

The school are looking for food truck vendors and coffee trucks that would like to be a part of their celebration. Memorabilia for their displays are welcome from students, teachers, parents, and caregivers.

A Facebook group, Surveyors Creek PS 20th Year Celebrations 2002-2022, has been set up with up-to-date information added. In addition, they will be keeping people informed through their school newsletter, website, and social media.
