Principal's Message
Victoire Larmenier was an example of patience to all who knew her. She encountered and overcame amazing difficulties.
Blessed are the gentle for they shall possess the earth. (Matt 5:5)
In all circumstances we persevere calmly with understanding and endurance.
This past week...
This week has been jam-packed with events and activities taking place across different year levels. We started the week with Book Week Dress Up Day which was a resounding success. Photos can be found on our official school FaceBook page. We have also had AFL sessions as part of our P.E lessons, Year 4 visiting the SPC Science Fair, the Sacrament of Confirmation for two of our students as well as having our year 6 students on camp.
Father's Day Breakfast
Our Father's Day Breakfast is also coming up. It is on Monday 4th September 8.00 am in the undercover area. We look forward to having Dads or grandads coming in and sharing breakfast together. It is a small way that we can celebrate and thank the father figures in our student's lives.
Breakfast Club
Our Breakfast Club continues to be popular and we, that is Mrs Carroll, is cooking more toast than ever. It is a great way to ensure students are getting a good start for the day with being prepared for learning. Having something to eat before school makes it easier for students to concentrate and be their best for learning!
What's coming up.....
The term does not get any quieter as we still have more camps coming up, more excursions, a STEM Conference, AFL and Dance workshops just to name a few.
Kind regards,
Niccola Pearce
Principal
