The sense of community visibly present on Thursday was amazing!

Today, our amazing Year 2 students turned into ultimate media detectives this week as we learned to crack the code behind food advertisements and how they influence our choices! It was incredibly exciting to watch them uncover the clever tricks marketers use and then channel that knowledge into designing their own brilliant, healthy posters. They did an absolutely fantastic job explaining the difference between everyday healthy choices and flashy "Sometimes" food ads—we are so proud of their creativity!

✨ Congratulations to Our Stage 3 Confirmation Candidates ✨ Today, a large group our Stage 3 students celebrated the Sacrament of Confirmation, led by Father Wim. We congratulate each student on this important step in their faith journey. During his homily, Father Wim spoke about the Gifts of the Holy Spirit and reminded students that these gifts help guide us in our daily lives. He encouraged them to use these gifts in the same way a coach supports and guides a team—helping others, making good choices, showing courage, and living as disciples of Christ. May the Holy Spirit continue to guide and strengthen our newly confirmed students as they grow in faith, wisdom, and love. 🕊️🙏💛

What a fantastic experience - visiting Parliament House and spending time in our very own House of Representatives! 🇦🇺 Students stepped into the roles of Prime Minister, Leader of the Opposition, Speaker and Serjeant-at-Arms . They debated whether a new law should be passed - schools should allocate 3 hours a day for sport 🏏⚽🏀 A lively debate, confident speeches and plenty of laughs made for an unforgettable experience. The final vote? The final count? You’ll have to ask the students! 😉

Our Stage 3 students stepped back in time during their visit to Old Parliament House, a building that is almost 100 years old and full of Australian history. As they explored the historic chambers, including the Senate and House of Representatives chambers, students discovered how important decisions were once made for the country. Through interactive exhibits and hands-on activities, they examined historical artefacts and learned how democracy gives Australians a voice in their community. The excursion brought history to life in a fun and engaging way.

After enjoying some lovely sunshine outdoors and sharing our lunch together, our Stage Three students visited the Australian Film Institute. During our visit, we learnt about the power of media and how text, images, and sound can all be combined to create strong and meaningful messages. It was a very engaging and educational experience that gave us a deeper understanding of storytelling and communication through film and media.
