PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE

Dear Parents

 God with us, and Father of us all, please bless the parents of our school

so that they willingly join with us and support us as we help develop the lives of

their children and lead them to your Son, Jesus.

 

Please keep in your prayers our families some of which are experiencing loss and sadness at this time .images.jpg

Over the last few weeks our Year 3 children have been preparing for the Sacrament of Holy Communion. On Sunday they will receive the Sacrament .

May they always know the Peace of Jesus, the Light of His Love and the Joy of His Life within them.

Student Leadership 2021

The process for electing school captains, vice-captains, Liturgy leader, Community Leader, Environmental Leader and Sports Captains will commence as of yesterday­­­­­­­. I spoke to Year 5 students about the concept of student leadership yesterday and have invited them to nominate for these positions. I have asked the boys and girls to send me an email informing me of which position/s they will be nominating.
They do not need to send me their speech this year however they need to prepare a speech for December 1st. Those interested ( School Captains, Liturgy, Community and Environmental leaders ) will be asked to present a short speech  on why they would like to nominate for a position and what qualities they possess that would make them ideal candidates. These speeches will take place on Tuesday 2nd December at 11am in the breakout space and shared with Yrs 3, 4, 5 and 6 classrooms on their TVs. Voting will then occur for ALL positions.

 

Year 6 Graduation

Following Diocesan Guidelines we are able to hold Year 6 graduation. Even though this is great news for our boys and girls this year’s celebration will look very different. A letter will be sent out to you tomorrow detailing the event.

Remembrance Day

Last week November 11th the whole school took part in a COVID safe liturgy and presentation of floral tributes in our Anzac Garden. We observed one minute’s silence in memory of those men and women who died and suffered in all wars and armed conflicts.
