Kaboom Sports
On 7th November, the Foundation students attended Kaboom Sports held at P-12 College.
It was a fantastic event. Students were put into groups with children from other schools and then moved around several different sporting activities.
The students really enjoyed themselves.
Pevan and Sarah
Last Monday, the Foundation students celebrated all of their learning by attending the Pevan and Sarah concert in Bendigo.
What an amazing day we had singing and dancing along to all of Pevan and Sarah's educational songs.
On the way home we stopped at the Rochester Rotary Park to have our lunch and a play. We were lucky enough to see a train come by while we were there.
Years 1 and 2

Overall, it was a successful day, leaving participants with positive memories and a greater appreciation for teamwork and healthy living.
Harmony Day and Colour Run
The Colour Run event at St Augustine's College was a vibrant celebration of diversity, inclusivity and community spirit. Held to coincide with Harmony Day, a national observance in Australia, the event aimed to promote cultural understanding and acceptance while fostering a sense of unity among students.
Students participated in a fun and energetic run while being showered with brightly colored powders, symbolising the celebration of diversity and the vibrant cultures represented within the school community. The event was full of laughter, excitement, and a sense of camaraderie, as students of all year levels joined in the fun.

Campaspe Library Guest Speaker
Natalie Stephenson from the Kyabram library spoke to the Year 3 students about what the Kyabram Library has to offer. She talked about the range of activities provided for all ages such as storytime, craft, scrabble, guest speakers, holiday programs and lots more. The students were completely engaged with Natalie's presentation and used the information to write a persuasive piece about why you should visit the Kyabram library.
Gifts for Warramunda
As part of our Religious Education unit, 'Christmas: The Message of Peace and Joy,' the Years 3/4 students will be visiting Warramunda to spend time with the residents. They have been busily preparing a personalised gift pack to give to the residents which includes hand-made Christmas decorations, a bookmark and a card. We are looking forward to this special occasion.
Years 3/4 Summer Sports
