Dear Parents and Carers, 

Yesterday, we were blessed with beautiful weather for our annual Athletics Carnival. Students from all year levels participated with great enthusiasm, showcasing their athletic skills and sportsmanship. Thank you to Mrs Mobberley, Mrs Smith, the staff and the many parent helpers who volunteered to assist, without your support, such school events would not be possible. The ribbons and age champions presentation will take place during a special assembly in the school hall on Wednesday 2 July at 1:50pm. 

As previously mentioned, Semester 1 Reports will be available on Compass from Wednesday 2 July. Learning Conversations for students in Years 1-6 occurred in Term 1 as per our reporting and assessment schedule. Kindergarten parents will be provided with a mid-year learning conversation opportunity at the commencement of next term, information on how to book a time will be shared with families next week. 

This year we will be celebrating Grandparent’s Day on Wednesday 23 July. This is a special day where we honour and appreciate the important role that grandparents play in our lives. This date aligns with The Feast of Joachim and Anne, the grandparents of Jesus, which will be held on Sunday 26 July. All parents, carers and grandparents are warmly invited to join us in celebrating and giving thanks for the beautiful gift of grandparents. The celebration on Wednesday 23 July will commence with mass at 9:00am and will be followed by morning tea and open classrooms. Please save the date and share it with the grandparents within your families. 

Tonight, our amazing P & F are hosting a silent disco, please view the flyer below for further details. Thank you to the many parent helpers who have offered to assist on the night. A special thank you to Nikki and Ryan Aitchison who have donated the silent disco headsets.
