Last Wednesday and Thursday our children were very excited to be able to purchase a special gift for the fathers, grandfathers and male carers.
Thank you to all our wonderful parents who give so generously of their time to facilitate such special events! Not only do they turn up on the day to sell gifts, but the organise to purchase and wrap as well, ensuring that all children can take something very special home to their father figures.

Through this simple and meaningful liturgy, our students remembered how the crowd welcomed Jesus with love and praise. It was a special moment for our school community as we begin the journey of Holy Week together and prepare our hearts for Easter. ✝️ Thank you to our wonderful Kindergarten students and teachers for sharing this joyful reminder of faith with us.

🌧️ Splashing Into Science at Featherdale! 🐾 Who says a little rain can’t be part of the adventure? Our Year 1 and Year 2 explorers proved that they are true "Habitat Heroes" during our trip to Featherdale Wildlife Park! Despite the drizzly weather, our junior zoologists were out in full force, investigating how living things eat, sleep, and play in their homes. From the soft fur of a kangaroo to the scaly skin of a lizard, the students didn't miss a beat (or a puddle!). Parents, we’ve captured some truly "wild" moments from the day. Please take a moment to scroll through the photos to see your little explorers in action! 🤳👇 https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1mtuHusT2zR-0_lQHerj63EBxAF44H2PS?usp=drive_link #FeatherdaleAdventures #Year1And2 #LivingThings #RainOrShine #FutureZoologists #SchoolExcursion

During ZING this term, students have been developing their athletics skills in preparation for the upcoming Athletics Carnival. 🏃♂️ Year 4 students have been focusing on improving their reaction time when starting a sprint race, learning how to respond quickly and confidently off the starting line. In field events, they have also been practising the correct technique for launching a shot put, building both skill and strength. Throughout the term, students have thoroughly enjoyed the engaging activities led by the expert ZING teachers, and it has been wonderful to see their confidence grow and their skills improve in these key focus areas. Bring on the Athletics Carnival!🏅

Today we were blessed with beautiful weather for our Big Walk for Water. All the students from Kindergarten to Year 6 participated, carrying buckets of water, walking in solidarity with those facing water scarcity in Fiji, Tanzania and Bangladesh. The students were able to relate in small ways to Sisilia who had to walk long distances each day until, with the help of Project Compassion, water taps were installed in her village and school. We are happy to announce that to date, we have raised $694 for Project Compassion. 💧💙 We are getting so close to our target of $1000. We would also like to take the opportunity to thank Minchinbury Bunnings for donating 80 buckets for us to use today. #faithinactioncspd #ProjectCompassion #BigWaterWalk

🌸🎨A Celebration of Colour and Nature in Year 3 Inspired by the colourful style of Pete Cromer, Year 3 used bright oil pastels to create bold patterns and stripes, then cut out petal shapes and arranged them in a circular bush flower design. We collaged the pieces onto a soft painted background to make the flower stand out. Like Pete Cromer’s artworks, our work celebrates colour, texture and the beauty of nature. 🌸

Last week, our Year 6 students participated in an informative zoom session with the NSW Parliament. 🖥️✨ They learned about the important responsibilities of our leaders and even discovered the unique role of the Serjeant-at-Arms. They explored the different Houses of Parliament and the unique responsibilities each level of government holds. This session has our students feeling prepared and excited for their Canberra excursion coming up next term. Great work, Year 6! 🌟
