Good afternoon families,
What a wonderful first week we have had as the start to Term 2.
On Monday we started with St Louis' Feast Day with a whole school mass, then Kaboom activities at Brown's Reserve and a sausage sizzle for lunch. Thank you to the PFA and Lisa Goodes for cooking 1000 sausages.
Today, we ran St Louis' Cross Country and all students from Y3-Y6 participated and it had a carnival feel to the event. Congratulations to the top 10 students in each age group that will now go onto the District Cross Country next Friday. Thank you to all the parents who helped, we could not do it without you.
