Encouragement awards were also presented to students who worked hard all term to improve their spelling knowledge and skills. Well done to Kobie-Lee Clarke-Freeman; Riley Flynn & Matthew Jackson.

Thank you to Mr Sean Killeen for co-ordinating this fun and important learning opportunity.

McCarthy Students Visit the Infants Campus

On Monday morning the Infants students and teachers were very fortunate to have a visit from a group of Year 12 McCarthy Catholic College students who were completing community service.  A large number of the MCC students were ex St Edward's students and this made the visit extra special as they happily reminisced about their primary school years.

The students assisted in the classrooms by hearing students read, helped with book work and of course really enjoyed playing with the students at recess.
