A Message from Our Year 5/6 Leaders – Garage Sale This Thursday!
We’ve been busy! Over the past few weeks, we’ve brainstormed ideas, done our research, surveyed people, collected and analysed data, and now ~ we’re ready for action!
This Thursday from 2:30pm – 4:30pm in the school hall, we’re hosting our very own Garage Sale. We’ve gathered pre-loved items from our homes and families to raise money for local needs through Foodshare and global needs through Catholic Mission.
Students can purchase items during school time using tickets (50c each), with items ranging from 50c to $10. You can bring your money to school in a clearly labelled envelope or shop with your family when they come along to join us after school. Everyone WELCOME!
We can’t wait to see you there. Come along, grab a bargain, and help us make a difference both locally and globally!
Introducing Our Annual Grade 6 Profiles!
As part of our cherished school tradition, we are excited to present the Grade 6 Profiles, a special rite of passage for our senior students as they prepare to graduate. Each year, our Year 6 students reflect on their journey through primary school, sharing personal insights, memories, and their hopes for the future.
In each newsletter from now until the end of the year, we will feature these profiles, offering a glimpse into the experiences and dreams of our future leaders. This is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate their growth, resilience, and the bright futures ahead of them.
Stay tuned to hear their stories and be inspired by the incredible journeys they’ve taken during their time at our school!
