On Tuesday, 12 June, 2018, the children in grades 3-6 participated in our annual athletics carnival.
Despite the light drizzle as we set out, the sun came out and we had beautiful weather for the rest of the day.
From all accounts the children thoroughly enjoyed the day, commenting particularly on the “fun” activities that they were able to participate in this year.
Children took part in 100, 200 and 800 m running events, as well as shotput, long jump, tug-of-war and a variety of ball games and other activities.
Thanks to Mr Mackey, teachers and parents who worked together to make this a fun-filled day for our children.

🎨 Year 1 Art Adventure: 3D Art & Nature! 🌿 This week, our Year 1 artists explored 3D Art, Sculpture, and Photography, learning how 3D pieces are shaped to be viewed from all sides rather than staying flat on paper. We drew inspiration from First Nations artists like Lorraine Connelly-Northey, Yvonne Koolmatrie, and the Erub Arts collective, who weave and shape scavenged materials, sedge grass, and ghost nets into coolamons, woven animals, and marine life. We also looked at Andy Goldsworthy’s temporary nature sculptures captured through photography. Want to try a quick activity at home? Head into the garden with your child to gather leaves, twigs, and stones, build a 3D ground sculpture together, and snap a picture of their creation—feel free to share your photo in the comments below!

📚✨ Welcome Back to Term 3! ✨📚 Our school was buzzing with excitement today as we welcomed our students back for the first day of Term 3! It was wonderful to see smiling faces, hear holiday stories, and watch friendships reconnect as our classrooms came alive once again. We are looking forward to a term filled with learning, growth, faith and new opportunities for every student. As we begin this new term, we also embrace our 2026 school theme, "Belong to Something Greater." Together, we will continue to build a community where every child knows they are valued, connected and called to make a positive difference in the lives of others. ❤️ Welcome back, everyone! We can't wait to see all that this term will bring ❤️

What's It Really Like to Send Your Kid to a Catholic School?
If you've ever assumed that attending a Catholic school means you have to be Catholic and that the fees are expensive, you're not alone. It's a common perception, but for many families, the reality looks quite different.
