New Soft fall on Primary Playground
This week we are having new soft fall installed under the 3-6 playground equipment. This will hopefully mean less sand making it into your cars and houses! Thank you to the P and F for making this happen!
Christmas Appeals
This year we will be collecting non perishable food items to donate to the St Vincent de Paul Christmas hamper appeal. Students are encouraged to bring in a food item to be placed in their classroom box. These items are presented to the local St Vincent de Paul at our Thanksgiving Mass on Thursday 14 December. On Wednesday 13 December we will also be holding our annual "coin drop" where students can "drop" a coin as a donation to SVDP. Generosity at this time of year is important for us to understand that it is giving that we receive.
“Love and kindness are never wasted. They always make a difference. They bless the one who receives them, and they bless you, the giver.”
- Dr. Barbara De Angelis
