Prayer: A Prayer for Peace

Lord Jesus Christ,You are the true King of peace.
In You alone is found freedom.
Please free our world from conflict.
Bring unity to troubled nations.
Let Your glorious peace reign in every heart.
Dispel all darkness and evil.Protect the dignity of every human life.
Replace hatred with Your love.
Give wisdom to world leaders.
Free them from selfish ambition.
Eliminate all violence and war.
Amen

Dear Families,

Whilst it will be a short week for us at school after the long weekend, much has happend already and tonight we look forward to our first School Disco in some time. Thank you to all involved as I am sure it will be a great night for our children. As I have mentioned before, our Parents & Friends group is an extremely important part of the school community and whilst often this can mean a few people doing a lot of work I am really hoping that from next year we will see some new faces willing and able to contribute to our school fundraising and community activities. Early next year we will send out a form asking for your support and I encourage you to consider ways, big or small, that you are able to contribute to our already wonderful community.

Farewell Ms Brown

Tomorrow we will farewell Ms Brown who begins her maternity leave and I am sure I speak for all of us in saying how much she will be missed. We wish her all the very best in the lead up to the birth of her baby and look forward to a visit early next year. Ms Rebecca will replace Maddie and so we are very lucky to have someone who already knows our school and many of the children in the 1/2 class.

Staffing 2025

As we know, each year, for various reasons we may see some changes in staffing for the year ahead. Next year we will have several changes and in the coming weeks I will announce these as we are still in the process of interviewing for some teaching positions at Trinity.

Building 2025

As communicated last term we were very fortunate to succesfully apply for and win a school improvement grant of approximatley $2.4million dollars. I will be meeting with architects next week to re-look at the school Master Plan which was developed a number of years ago and will need to be reviewed in light of current costs and school needs. It is an exciting project to be starting but will of course involve some inconvenience and forward planing but will no doubt be very well worth it in the end.

Prep 2025 Transition Day 2

On Wednesday we hosted the second of our Prep 2025 Transition mornings and we spent time with the parents of these children working our way through the Prep Parent Handbook. There is a great buzz amongst this group of parents, most of whom are beginning this primary school journey for the first time. Thankyou to all those current parents who have reached out to our new families as this hospitality and welcome has been mentioned to me several times already.
