Kindy Rose makes cards for their mothers
Kindy Red loved creating something special for their mums for Mother's Day. The classroom was filled with excitement and creativity as the children eagerly got to work, pouring their love into heartfelt cards. With tiny hands and big imaginations, they painted, glued, and crafted beautiful surprises — from colourful artwork to sweet little keepsakes. Each creation was unique, just like their mums, and the children couldn’t wait to present their gifts with proud smiles and warm hugs. The joy and thoughtfulness that filled the room made it a truly memorable celebration of the special bond between children and their mothers.
Year 2 Diamond’s Heartfelt Performance at OLOL’s Mother's Day Lunch
Today, Year 2 Diamond, led by their teacher Miss Alweddy, gave a heartwarming performance at the OLOL Youth Centre during the church's Mother's Day lunch. The students sang a beautiful Mother's Day song and 2 other hymns that touched the hearts of everyone in the audience. Their enthusiasm, confidence, and joyful voices filled the room with love and appreciation for all the mothers and grandmothers present. A big well done to Year 2 Diamond, Miss Alweddy, and Ms Katie for their wonderful performance!
Parent Association running the Mother's Day stall
Our wonderful Parent Association brought smiles all around with this year’s Mother’s Day Stall! Students loved browsing the selection of gifts and choosing the perfect surprise for their mum. A huge thank you to the parents and volunteers who gave their time and energy to make the stall such a success — your efforts helped create lasting memories for our school community.

From the Parents Association
Dear Parent community,
The Parent Association is a group of volunteer parents who assist in different events & fund raising for the College. So far this year we have assisted with:
- Easter Raffle and Stall
- Mother's Day Stall
- Co-assisting with the Biggest Morning Tea
- And coming VERY soon ‘Over 18’s Triva’ – Friday 20th June.
So far this year we have seen many new faces join this PA bring new energy and much needed help with a growing school community.
We have a few more events planned for Spring 2025 – and could use a few more hands to help along the way. We meet every month with updates and feedback shared with the College. It’s a great opportunity to give back and I encourage more parents to join!
To Join simply apply via the Sentral and don’t forget to click YES to join the PA WhatsApp group.
Thanks
