Newsletter Update: Community News & Celebrations
Good afternoon, families,
We hope this week finds you well. It has been a busy and heartening time at our school, filled with community spirit and student achievements. Here is the latest update on what’s been happening.
Celebrating Mother’s Day
A very Happy Mother’s Day to all our mums, grandmothers, and the special friends who care for our students. We hope your day was filled with wonderful food, shared stories, and plenty of laughter. Below are just a few snaps from our Mother's Day Breakfast. Be sure to check your emails or Compass app to access the folder with your photo in.
We would also like to extend a huge thank you to everyone who made our school celebrations possible:
- Mother’s Day Stall: Thank you to Katey and Dee for organising the stall, and to the parent volunteers who helped everything run smoothly on Tuesday.
- Breakfast & Mass: Gratitude to our Year 6 parents and Lisa for the delicious breakfast, and to Mrs Stefanec and the choir for their beautiful performance.
- Special Thanks: To Father Michael and Mrs Douglas for leading a wonderful Mass in honour of our mothers.
Student Achievements & Leadership
Senior Athletic Carnival - Congratulations to MacKillop House for their victory at the Senior Athletic Carnival! We are proud of all our competitors, and we wish the best of luck to the students moving on to Districts, Regionals, and State titles.
Junior Lord Major - The Kingston Council recently held their Junior Lord Major event. Our Year 6 students voted for Ariana to represent the school with her speech, supported by Leanke, Scarlett F, and Maddie D. They did a fantastic job, and we are incredibly proud of their leadership.
Big Green Schools Conference Our Year 6 Sustainability, Garden, and DRI leaders recently attended the Green Schools Conference with Mrs Mertens and Frank. They had a productive day learning about and sharing sustainability practices with other local schools.
Important Reminders
Year 4 First Eucharist Our Year 4 students are currently preparing for their First Communion on Sunday, 17 May. Please keep these children in your prayers as they reach this significant milestone in their faith journey.
Winter Uniform Policy: Thank you to the families who have already transitioned to the winter uniform. As a reminder:
- Skorts and tracksuit pants are only to be worn on designated PE lesson days.

Parents, please remind your children to always wear their bike helmets when they are riding their bikes, and parents, if you are riding, please wear your helmets as well.
Thank you for your continued support of our school community!
Have a wonderful weekend
