School String Ensemble
On Friday 14th March pupils at Holy Spirit Primary School celebrated Catholic Schools Week with a number of events.
The morning was spent buying books at the Book Fair and taking part in the school spell-a-thon. The money raised via sponsorship from family and friends will be used to fund different projects in the school.
After the spell-a-thon the children gathered in the Church to celebrate the Opening School Mass. It was a wonderful occasion shared with many family and friends. All the children participated with great enthusiasm and reverence. The school string ensemble made the event even more special by preforming Pachelbel’s Cannon at the Mass.
After Mass, the parents were served morning tea and then ushered into the MPA to see the students preform a variety of items. There were songs and poems presented each met with great applause from all those present. Parents were then invited to tour the classrooms and participate in an activity with their children.
The day was a great success and an excellent way to show parents and allow students to share what they are learning and doing at school.

Our Year 2 students gathered for a special liturgy as part of their Religious Education unit “What is a Sacrament?” 💒 During the liturgy, each child received a candle as a reminder to let their light shine and share God’s love with others. 🕯️✨ Through prayer, song (we've added a video to this post) and reflection, the students showed great reverence as they celebrated God’s grace at work in the sacraments. We are so proud of our Year 2 students for their participation and faith-filled hearts. May they continue to shine brightly as signs of God’s love in our world. 🙏🌟![755417086587041_1404987014963375-1]()

It was a special and faith-filled moment for them, their families, and our whole parish community. 💒✨ May God continue to guide and bless them as they grow in faith, hope, and love. 🌟

Get ready to be a little bit healthier, a little bit safer, and a whole lot smarter! 🤩 This week, kindy students had a fantastic time learning all about staying healthy with an incursion delivered by some amazing Aussie animal characters! 🐨🦘 Here's a snapshot of what we learned: Charlie the Cockatoo taught us the importance of a healthy breakfast to kickstart our day. 🥣 Platypus Perry showed us how to get a sparkling smile by brushing our teeth for two minutes, twice a day. ✨ Chunky the Koala taught us all about sun safety and why a hat and sunscreen are our best friends. ☀️ And we can't forget about staying hydrated! A Pelican reminded us to drink plenty of water. 💧 The kids had a wonderful time learning these valuable lessons! We hope they'll be practicing these healthy habits at home. #NSWschools #HealthyHabits #Incursion #PrimarySchool #AussieAnimals #KidsHealth #SunSafety #SmileSparkle ✨

📚✨ Our Year 4 students are finishing the term with a creative writing adventure – fractured fairy tales! ✨📚 We’ve been revisiting what makes a fairy tale, and exploring how precise vocabulary – especially adjectival and adverbial phrases – can add richness and detail to a text. The students recently retold Goldilocks and the Three Bears, and now we can’t wait to see how they “fracture” the tale with their own imaginative twists!

🌟 Kindy Superstars in the Making! 🌟 We are bursting with pride for our amazing Kindergarten students who are doing such a fantastic job learning to read and write! They are not only recognising their tricky words but also learning to hear the vowel sounds in them. 📚✏️ It's incredible to see how clever they are, spotting the tricky digraphs they've learned within words. They love highlighting their tricky words when they find them in their writing—what a fantastic way to celebrate their learning! Keep up the brilliant work, Kindy! You are all shining so brightly! ✨ #KindyLearning #LiteracyJourney #TrickyWords #VowelSounds #NSWPrimarySchool #ProudTeachers #EarlyLiteracy

💙 Happy Father’s Day! 💙 A huge thank you to all the dads, stepdads, uncles, grandads, and father figures who joined us for our special Father’s Day Breakfast. It was such a joy to see so many families together celebrating! The children loved dressing up as their dads, and it was wonderful watching the fun continue in the playground as dads joined in the games with their kids. 🏀🤸 We also enjoyed visits to the classroom (even some of our staff members' dads came along). We are so grateful for the love, guidance, and example you share with our community each day. 💙
