Principal's Chat

Good afternoon OLSC families   

The end of term is here.  I hope you all have a great term break and the young ones at your house remember to help care for those that care for us - they were all reminded of this at this morning's assembly and some good ideas were shared form the group about how they could make the holidays more pleasant for those that care about us.

Casual Clothes Day Winners 

Today the students from Shalome's and Donna's Learning Group had a casual clothes day as a prize for raising the most money by the end of May.  Both Shalome and Donna also got the week off all yard duty as their own reward.  Shalome's Learning Group will also receive an additional prize next term as they raised the most overall.  

Term Three 

Term Three will resume on Monday 10th July.  We look forward to another busy term ahead with many major events including Confirmation, First Eucharist, preps 100th day, some excursions to the zoo, feast day mass and celebration, and 5/6 camp.  No doubt it will be another great term.
