Mr Butts' Announcements

Anzac Day

Thank you to those students and families who joined us for the Anzac Day March on Sunday.  The newly renovated cenotaph and surrounds were officially opened by Damian Drum, which was followed by the local ceremony.  The children who represented St Mary's were exemplary in the way they took part.  

Dhungala Children's Choir

Last Friday four students representing St Mary's took part in a concert for primary aged aboriginal children.  Sienna Dean, Aiden May, Kohan Soloman Holt and Ella Thomas spent the week preparing with the Dhungala Choir to perform a concert titled "Short Black Opera".  The performance was outstanding and the kids did a brilliant job on stage in front of a big audience at Westside.

Mr Butts' Jokes!

 

I was at a friends house last night and he asked me if I'd seen the dog bowl?  I said "No - I didn't even know it played cricket!"

 

Q: Why did the M&M go to school?

A: It wanted to be a smartie!

 

 

Have a great week Everyone.
