Emmaus Village residents visit
On 29th October residents from the Emmaus Village came to visit Year 1 and Year 4 students, to talk about what life was like for them when they were at school.
This was a great opportunity for the children to show love and care to others, just as Jesus asks of us.
Barry, Errol, Greg, Betty, Diana, Joyce, Serge and Nurse Jo enjoyed answering the children's questions. They also visited some classrooms and had morning tea.
The Year 1 and Year 4 Teaching Teams thank the residents for making the day wonderful and we hope you visit again soon.

Our littlest learners in Kindergarten have been working incredibly hard this week! We've been practicing our letter writing skills and, most importantly, learning how to use those handy little words called conjunctions! Conjunctions help us to join our ideas, making our sentences longer and more descriptive. The Kindy students wrote beautiful, thoughtful letters to our Principal, Mrs Garzaniti, all about our school experiences.

Every Wednesday, Year 3 students are โDancing through the Nationsโ with Zing. Each session begins with a high-energy warm-up that introduces them to a variety of cultural dance moves and music from around the world. Students are developing their awareness of personal space, exploring how to travel through general space, and learning key movement concepts such as direction, level, and focus. They are also discovering foundational moves and gaining insight into the culture and history behind the dynamic street dance style of Hip Hop.

Cube Counters and Capacity Experts! ๐ Our investigation into volume and capacity is going brilliantly! Year 2 students are using cubes to measure the internal volume of containers and water to measure capacity. We learned the difference between how much space something takes up (volume) and how much something holds (capacity)! Great work measuring, everyone! #MathsIsFun #Year2Curriculum #MeasuringSkills #CapacityExperts

Today, our school community gathered for a solemn Remembrance Day Service to pause, reflect, and honour the courageous men and women who served and sacrificed for our freedom. ๐น The service included prayers, the laying of poppies, and a moment of silence at 11:00 AM to remember those who paid the ultimate sacrifice. We focused on the values of courage, peace, and service, which resonate deeply with our Catholic faith. It is vital that our students understand the significance of this day and the enduring call to work toward peace in our world. Thank you to our students and staff for their respectful participation. We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks and gratitude to Mr Ashley, Mrs Ritter and Jasmine for sharing with our school community their military artefacts which made our service all the more memorable. ๐ Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. #RemembranceDay #LestWeForget #HolySpirit #CatholicEducation #ServiceAndSacrifice #WeRememberThem
