A great Term 1!
As we reach the end of Term 1, I am pleased to see that our classrooms remain focused and productive. It is a credit to both our students and staff that the momentum of learning has continued right through to the final days of the term.
Term Highlights
It has been a busy term for our K-11 community. From the Swimming Carnival to the recent Easter Fair, these events have been a great way to bring everyone together. I am particularly impressed by the number of students who challenged themselves by participating in new sporting and academic extracurricular activities over the last few weeks. Just being involved in extra events, whether you win or lose, is important to everyone's growth and development.
School and Family Partnership
The connection between school and home remains a key part of our success this term:
- Family Conferences and Meetings: Thank you to the families who attended our recent progress meetings. This collaboration is essential for student growth.
- Attendance: Our high attendance rates continue to have a direct, positive impact on the learning environment for all students.
Faith in Action
This week marks the end of our Lenten journey. Over the last six weeks, our students have focused on supporting others through various mission initiatives.
We will conclude this on Thursday with our "Walk for Water." This event is an important opportunity for our students to practice empathy and reflect on the importance of supporting vulnerable communities. If you are able, please feel free to donate an amount that is doable for your family to Project Compassion
Thank You
I want to extend my thanks to the P&F Committee and the volunteers who organized Friday’s Easter Fair. Despite the windy weather, it was a great evening that highlighted the strong "family feel" of our school.
To our families: thank you for your ongoing support. We value the contribution every student makes to our community. I wish you all a restful and peaceful Easter break.
