On Thursday 21 May 2015, Holy Spirit Primary School celebrated the Feast of Pentecost with a whole school mass.
Pentecost is celebrated on the 50th day after Easter and commemorates the birth of the church when the Holy Spirit came down on the disciples gifting them with courage, power and zeal to spread the Good News that Jesus had risen from the dead and is alive!
Songs, such as “Sing to the Lord with Shouts of Joy” and “Holy Spirit Rock” were performed during the mass by the school choir and coupled with the participation of those assembled further added to the celebration of the school and parish feast day.
The whole school community participated in this prayerful celebration led by Father Jepser, with many students taking part in readings, the Gospel and Offertory processions and concluding with a liturgical movement focusing symbolically on the power of the Holy Spirit.
The Holy Spirit Parish will celebrate the Feast of Pentecost on the weekend of 23rd & 24th May 2015 at Holy Spirit Church.

Transitioning smoothly into ‘big school’: What parents need to know
The first day of Kindergarten! It’s a milestone filled with excitement, pride and maybe a few nerves (for both you and your child!). Starting “big school” marks the beginning of a whole new adventure, and with a little preparation, you can help make those first weeks calm, confident and full of smiles.

What a truly special way to commence our end of year events for our 2025 school year at Holy Spirit Primary School! 🙏 Today, we gathered for our End of Year Mass, celebrating the start of Advent—a time of joyful anticipation and preparation for Christmas. We were honoured to have Father Peci share a beautiful Homily with our students and community, reminding us that we encounter Jesus in three wonderful ways: In History: We learn and reflect on the amazing story of Jesus’ birth—the very reason for our Christmas celebration! 🌟 In Daily Life: We encounter Him every day when we make room for Him in our hearts and actions. It's about living out His message of love and kindness. ❤️ Again (Second Coming): We hold the promise that Jesus will come again to make all things new! This gives us hope for the future. 🌍 This mass marks the official close of a fantastic 2025 where our focus has been centered on student growth and the overall wellbeing of every child in our care. We are so proud of the progress our students have made! Our last day of school for 2025 is Wednesday 17th December. Please join us, if you can, on Wednesday for our End of Year Assembly and Christmas Performance. We wish all our families a very safe, holy, and Merry Christmas. We look forward to seeing everyone refreshed in the new year!

Students in Year 3 are learning to recognise that artists create art for a variety of reasons and that artworks can be interpreted in multiple ways. Using photography and the Canva website, students used iPads or Chromebooks to take photos of a classroom object, upload their images into a Canva drawing template, and create a repeating pattern featuring at least four repetitions of their chosen object.
