Greetings Peter Hobart Community, 


It has been an amazing start to our school year! The positive energy and excitement to be in learning spaces has been palpable. We appreciate all the support you have given to make the start of the school year a successful one. As a school community, we have been working on Peter Hobart Pride and how we are respectful, safe, try hard, and are a community in different spaces throughout the school. 


Thank you for your collaboration to start the year!
