Time to Connect

It was a real privilege to spend time with the students and share in their adventures on the Year 4 Camp last week. It was great to see students getting involved in the variety of activities available, trying new things and challenging themselves to step outside their comfort zones. But perhaps even more special was witnessing the kindness they showed one another along the way. Whether offering encouragement to help someone overcome a moment of uncertainty or celebrating each other's achievements, these moments demonstrated what it truly means to belong and look out for one another. 

It was these interactions which brought to life the words of Scripture, “Love one another as I have loved you” (John 13:34), reminding us that kindness is not simply something we say, but something we show through our actions. A wonderful few days of learning, connecting and growing together!

New Playground

Exciting things are happening at St Peter’s, with the installation of our new playground just around the corner! Last week our plans for an additional playground were approved by the MACS Finance and Infrastructure Committee. This is the final step in the planning process, which commenced in 2024. A huge thank you to the St Peter's community who have worked so diligently over the past two years to see this dream come to life.

This project is a wonderful example of what can be achieved when a community comes together with a shared vision. The incredible fundraising efforts and generosity of our families, particularly through the P&F, have enabled us to bring this project to life in a relatively short space of time. We are so grateful to everyone who has contributed, supported and championed this initiative. It is a significant investment in our students, providing an exciting new space for play, imagination, adventure and connection. We cannot wait to see the smiles, hear the laughter and watch our St Peter’s students enjoy their new playground for many years to come!

Construction will start once students finish for the year and is scheduled to be completed before the commencement of the 2027 school year.
