On Tuesday, 19 June, parents were invited to visit Holy Spirit for our grand Gymnastics Showcase.
Parents braved the terrible weather conditions to watch our spectacular performances.
This year we have, for the first time, engaged the services of Dance Fever to run our gymnastics program. Our wonderful, dynamic and engaging instructors from Dance Fever continued their great work with the children on Tuesday, having students demonstrate a range of skills, such as balancing, tumbling, etc.
Students were very excited to have the opportunity to demonstrate the range of gymnastics skills and movements they have learnt this semester to their parents.

Year 6 have been learning to use mono-printing techniques to create a unique artwork that explores the "likeness" of an object through light 🌅 and shadow. 🌄 They are experimenting with the use of ink to create their artworks. Students then experimented with stencil printmaking. Some created their own stencils while others used commercial stencils. They used sponges or paintbrushes to apply the paint using the stipple technique. They are enjoying learning new skills to create artworks.

🏡 Year 4 Persuasive Writing in Action! ✏️ Our Year 4 students have been learning how to use precise vocabulary to persuade and engage their audience. As part of their persuasive writing unit, students stepped into the role of real estate agents and created texts to “sell” homes using descriptive and powerful language. It was wonderful to see their creativity shine as they described spacious living areas, breathtaking views, and beautifully designed homes. Well done, Year 4, for using your words so effectively to persuade and inform! 👏📚

This week, our Year 3 students continued work on persuasive texts. For this task, students focused on the opinion: "Year 3 should be allowed to go on an excursion EVERY term". Students sorted reasons that connected to different arguments and justified their thinking. There was lots of rich discussion, collaboration and sharing of ideas as they explained their choices. 📚💬

Today our Year 5 students attended Parish Mass, celebrated by Father Peter. During the Mass, Father Peter reflected on the Gospel of Matthew, reminding us that God is merciful and ready to forgive. We were encouraged to always be ready to forgive those who hurt us. 💜 He quoted the gospel stating we must forgive one another 'not 7 times but 77 times'. Thank you to all of the families who were able to join us in prayer at mass today. 🙏

Our Year 6 students have been exploring the geometric properties of polygons They have been investigating both line and rotational symmetry. They have also engaged in complex spatial reasoning tasks, investigating how shapes can be dissected and reconstructed into new forms based on their properties. Can you transform a rectangle into a parallelogram? It was wonderful to witness the students sharing these sophisticated problem-solving tasks with their parents this week.

Year 1 has been buzzing with activity this week! 🐝 Belong to Something Greater 🧩💛 Our students have been working incredibly hard on their reading and artistic skills. Initial Literacy: We are becoming word detectives! The children have been mastering those ""Tricky Words"" and building their reading confidence. 📚 Art: Our ""Belonging"" project is in full swing. We’ve been exploring what it means to be part of a community and expressing those feelings through some beautiful artwork. 🎨 We are so proud of the progress our Year 1 learners are making! ✨ We would love you to join us at 11:40am today for religion.
