Principal's Message

Dear Parents,
As we conclude Term 3, we celebrate a term filled with learning, faith, creativity and community.
One of the great highlights of the term was the 50th Lindfield Art Show and Fair, which brought our community together in a very special way. The event showcased creativity, fostered community connections, and demonstrated the generosity and dedication of the many families who contributed to its success. We are incredibly grateful to everyone who helped make this special event such a memorable celebration.
A special thank you to our wonderful parent volunteers and the dedicated LASF Committee. Your countless hours of planning, organising, setting up, and supporting events throughout the term have enriched the experiences of our students and strengthened our school community. We are deeply appreciative of your generosity, commitment, and willingness to serve.
Another outstanding achievement was our students' participation in this week's Zing Activ Interschools Challenge and Dance Showcase. Students engaged with enthusiasm, confidence, and teamwork, proudly demonstrating the skills they developed throughout the program. It was wonderful to see their energy, commitment, and joy on display.
Throughout the term, students also participated in a rich variety of learning experiences, including Book Week, public speaking, athletics, faith celebrations, leadership opportunities, and wellbeing initiatives. These experiences helped strengthen our students' confidence, creativity, and sense of belonging.
Thank you to our staff, families, parish community, and volunteers for your ongoing support. Together, we continue to create a vibrant learning community where every child is encouraged to grow, learn and flourish.
We wish all families a safe and relaxing holiday break and look forward to welcoming everyone back next term.
Kind regards,
Pauline Dinale
