PRESHIL WEEKLY
Hello Preshil community,
Welcome to Term 3!
We hope everyone enjoyed a restful and restorative mid-year break. It’s a joy to see the school come alive again with the energy and enthusiasm of our students and staff.
This semester promises to be rich with opportunities for learning, creativity and connection. We’re looking forward to so many exciting events that make Preshil such a vibrant and unique place to be — from the much-anticipated New Zealand Ski Trip for some of our high school students, and the individual Pathway Planning meetings we hold each year with our Year 8 – 10s, to the creative buzz of Anthology Week, and the energy of our upcoming Production.
Here’s to a great start to the second half of the year — we can’t wait to see what this term brings!
Warmly,
Aaron Mackinnon
Principal
One Man, Two Guvnors
Get ready for a laugh-out-loud ride! Set in 1960s Brighton, One Man, Two Guvnors follows the chaotic misadventures of Francis Henshall — a hungry, slightly clueless guy who accidentally ends up working for two bosses at the same time. One’s a gangster. The other’s in disguise. And both must never find out about the other.
Don’t miss Preshil’s hilarious take on this hit West End comedy — it’s bold, brilliant, and absolutely bonkers!
Please note this production is rated M – recommended for audience members 15 years and up, unless with a parent.

Staff Professional Development Session
Kicking off Term 3 with high energy and high impact!
A big thank you to Emma-Rose Parsons for delivering an incredible Professional Development session filled with fast-paced, practical, and neuroaffirming strategies for inclusive classrooms.
So many “aha” moments, real talk, and reminders that inclusion isn’t about extra, it’s about intentional.
