We're exploring a big question in Kindergarten this term: How does technology help us communicate... or does it? 📱 🤔 We'll be diving into different technologies, from video calls to emails, and looking at the benefits and challenges they present. We'll be asking questions like: Does a screen-based chat feel the same as talking face-to-face? and what happens when our technology doesn't work?

Year 1 became junior scientists to investigate what changes occur when we combine different materials. 🧪 We started with a prediction: what would a mix of flour, salt, water and oil create? The students did an amazing job following the instructions to combine the ingredients, measuring and mixing with great focus. The big reveal was incredible—we transformed our simple ingredients into soft, colourful play dough! This led to an important scientific discussion: is this change reversible or irreversible? 🤔 The students learned that once these ingredients are combined to create something new, it's an irreversible change—you can't separate the flour from the salt and water anymore! It was a fantastic, hands-on way to explore how materials change when manipulated. We're so proud of our young investigators! #Year1Science #PlayDoughFun #ScienceExperiment #IrreversibleChange #HandsOnLearning"

🎉 Celebrating Father Dave’s 80th Birthday Last month, Father Dave celebrated his 80th birthday, and today we had the joy of marking this special milestone with a heartfelt gesture. Two of our Kindergarten students proudly presented him with a school jacket embroidered with his name—a symbol that he truly belongs to our Holy Spirit community. Father Dave was genuinely touched and deeply appreciative of the gift. A beautiful reminder of the strong bond between our school and parish. 💙
