Around The Primary

Dear Parents,

Many thanks to all our wonderful dads and father figures for coming along to our Father’s Day Mass.  The celebrations were very well attended, and it really was fantastic seeing all our dads in one spot with their children.  To all those that couldn’t make it, we thought of you and prayed for you too!

Special thanks to the Secondary Hospitality students who cooked, served and cleaned up – all with a smile and spring in their step! 

Below is a short movie clip from the morning, as well as a great article from Parenting Ideas expert Michael Grose that reinforces some key messages to hopefully keep inspiring you to be the best dad and the best person you can be!

We wish all families a very happy and relaxing Father’s Day on Sunday.

Kind regards,

Antoinette De Pinto

Head of Primary

Sports Update

Year 3 – 6 Interhouse Athletics: Friday 11 September

There’s just one week to go until the Interhouse Athletics Carnival!  Some events have already taken place and the standard has been very high.  Even more pleasing has been the level of support and encouragement displayed by all students.  

Please find attached the schedule of the day with estimated times of each event for the Carnival.  

Please note that Tuesday 8 September will be the final athletics training after school.
