As part of Year 6 writing this term we have been working on letter writing. We decided to give purpose to our work by writing letters to serving Australian Soldiers that will be away from home at Christmas.
We also found out about an initiative that Australia Post facilitates where you can send Care Packages overseas with treats for the soldiers.
We started a collection of items such as…. Candy Canes, lollies, toiletries, puzzle books, magazines, food items and card games.
Our goal was to fill two post boxes. One for a male soldier and one for a female soldier. Through many generous donations, we managed to fill a total of 7 boxes. 3 of those boxes were filled with toys and dog treats for our hard working, bomb sniffer dogs and their handlers.
Our hope and prayers are that our small actions will bring great joy, happiness and comfort to our men and women serving overseas, who are sacrificing such a lot to make a difference in this world.

🧡💚 A message for our community 🧡💚 Our social media pages help us share the everyday joy, curiosity and creativity that fill our school. As the online world continues to evolve, we are taking thoughtful steps to ensure the way we share these moments reflects current guidance from the eSafety Commissioner and keeps student wellbeing at the centre. You will still see stories from classrooms, celebrations, learning experiences, sports, liturgies and all the things that make our community vibrant. What may look a little different is how we capture and present these moments. We’re being more selective about the types of images we post and more careful about how identifiable individual students are. Our goal hasn’t changed - we want families to feel connected to the life of the school and proud of what their children are part of. We’re simply adapting our approach so that our online presence remains safe, respectful and future‑focused. Thank you for your understanding and support as we navigate these changes. We remain committed to celebrating our vibrant school community while keeping student safety at the heart of everything we do.

Last week our Year 6 students returned from their camp with big smiles and memories they will carry with them for years to come. Over two days they challenged themselves with fun, team‑building activities, worked together to solve problems and encouraged one another. We extend our heartfelt thanks to the dedicated staff members who attended the camp and spent time away from their own families to support our students. Your care, energy, and commitment make experiences like this possible, and our community is deeply grateful. What a wonderful way for Year 6 to grow, learn, and shine together 💙

Our schools are cracking the reading code
Do you remember how you learned to read? For a vital skill that is linked to all other learning, it’s surprisingly difficult to explain how to go about learning it.

It doesn't take expensive resources or hours of extra time. Often, it's the small, everyday habits that make the biggest difference.

The students had gone home… and the kangaroos arrived! 🦘 A mob of our regular visitors were spotted enjoying the peace and quiet on the oval in the afternoon - grazing, relaxing and generally making themselves at home. 🌿 It’s not every school that can boast kangaroos as regular playground visitors! Our kangaroos have certainly become a special part of our school community. 🦘💚

She has inspired people through integrity, generosity and compassion and modelling what it means to live the Gospel every day. We know that these gifts that have enriched our school will continue to bless a new community and new people. May God bless you as you continue your journey, and may the light of Christ always guide your path, just as your light has guided so many of ours.
