Book Week - What a Week!
Thank you to our school community for making Book Week such a successful week at Trinity last week!
Guest Speaker: Sher Rill Ng
Last Friday during Book Week, our Year 3 to 6 students had the opportunity to enjoy illustrator Sher Rill Ng. This was a wonderful experience for our students as Sher Rill shared her love of literature and passion for illustrating.

Children's Liturgy of the Word - St James Church - Sunday 9th Sept - 11am Mass
From next Sunday, on the 9th of September, the Richmond Catholic Parish will be introducing 'Childrens Liturgy of the Word' for children from Prep to Year 6. This will be happening during the 11am Mass at St James Church.
Children who attend Mass with their families will be invited to join for a Children's Liturgy of the Word. The children will leave the church at the beginning of Mass and return for the Offertory Procession.
The children will listen to the Word of God and have the opportunity to discuss the Gospel message and how they can practise this in their own lives. This will help them to develop their own understandings and relationship with God.
This will be run by myself and supported by a group of school parents/parish members. If you are interested in helping or being involved in some way I would encourage you to make contact with me.
I invite families to join us for the 11am Mass on Sunday 9th of September, where the children will have the opportunity to participate in the Children's Liturgy. This will take place each Sunday at St James Church beginning on the 9th September and then again after the holidays on the 13th of October, and weekly thereafter.
I am looking forward to seeing the children from Trinity at the Sunday Mass for the Children's Liturgy.

Indigenous Literacy Day - Wednesday 4th Sept
Next Wednesday, it is Indigenous Literacy Day across Australia. It is an annual celebration of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples’ Stories, Cultures, and Languages.
Indigenous Literacy Day is held on the first Wednesday of September ‑ this year Wednesday 4 September. It is an opportunity for us at Trinity to share in the diversity of First Nations languages and cultures across Australia.
At Trinity all classes will be immersed in literature that has been written and illustrated by First Nations peoples. Here are three of the books that will be launched on Indigenous Literacy Day that our students will have the opportunity to read and respond to.

If at any time you would like to chat about the learning at Trinity, or you have any questions or concerns about your child's learning, please do not hesitate to see your child's teacher, or myself.
