Assistant Principal's Message

Congratulations!

We are so happy to announce Mr Jonathan Baker (brass instrument tutor) is the proud father of baby Arlo. We wish them all the sleep they can get, and know that baby Arlo has and will continue to bring joy and happiness to their family. 


New World Record!

Anna Z in Year 5 won a new world record in a Scratch Club game today - Tile Stacker!

She was determined to beat the world record score for the game and has since beat her own record. 


Work Placement and Work Experience

Over the past couple of weeks we have been lucky enough to have students from OLSH Kensington and Marcellin College complete work experience or work placement. The students have had time in the classrooms but also time to create organised working environments for staff and students. We are so grateful for students and ex-students who want to come to the school and dedicate their time and energy. True believers of our school motto of 'Love and Service.' Thank you!

Day of the Distinguished Presentations 

‘Day of the Distinguished’ is about transformation. Through a long and deep study of the eminent person, the students come to realise both the gifts and the challenges that person encountered in realising those gifts, in moving from potential to success. 

Learner ‘transformation’ comes through identification with that distinguished person. We encourage the students to speak in the first person, wear the clothes typical of that person’s life and times.  The motivations, aspirations and achievements of that Distinguished person can then serve as a transforming vector for one’s own life. Our Year 2 - 6 students will have time researching and preparing for their presentations of their distinguished figure to showcase their gifts and talents.  Kindergarten and Year 1 will have a modified oral presentation to complete and will present to their peers throughout  week 9. 

 

Classroom Presentations: Throughout Week 9 - Monday, 16th September to Friday, 20th September

Years 2- 6: Showcase Afternoon: Monday, 23rd September from 2:15-3pm (Parents Welcome) 

 

 

 

Yours in Love & Service
