It's a wonderful celebration of learning, creativity and Ermington's community spirit.
Our P&C plays a vital role in building school spirit through a range of fun community events.

These events create a warm, welcoming atmosphere and strengthen the connection between our school and community.
We celebrated NAIDOC Week with the incredible team from Nyumbar Education! Throughout the day, students took part in engaging class activities that deepened their understanding of Aboriginal culture and Country.
