On the 23rd of September, Children in Kindergarten have been learning about the features of places. During their class lesson, they got to have fun building their own little city. They had to used recycled materials to construct their own city!
Here students put their learning into action by careful placing each building in the correct spot that suites it purpose as well as dimensions. After a long hour in making the perfect city, our staff discovered that they have some incredible architects in the making!

Our Year 3 students have been exploring the mystery of the Holy Trinity – Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Through rich class discussions and learning activities, students developed their understanding of how the three Persons of the Trinity are united as one God. To deepen their learning, students participated in a directed drawing activity, creatively recreating a visual representation of the Holy Trinity. This hands-on experience allowed them to reflect on and express their understanding of this important belief in our Catholic faith. We are proud of the thoughtful reflections, creativity and engagement our students demonstrated as they explored this central mystery of our faith.

📚✨ Tricky Words, Here We Come! ✨📚 Our Kindergarten superstars have been busy practising their tricky words through reading and writing! 🌟 These words don't always follow the usual phonics rules, so they take extra effort to learn. We are so proud of the persistence, confidence and enthusiasm our students are showing as they work towards becoming independent readers and writers. 💛

Our Year 2 mathematicians have been exploring 3D objects by exploring rectangular prisms through hands-on learning, creating their own models of cubes to deepen their understanding. As they built, students described their cubes using mathematical language such as faces, edges, and vertices, and recognised that the flat surfaces of these objects are 2D shapes. It’s been wonderful to see students confidently applying their learning and explaining their thinking — check out their fantastic cube creations!

This week, our Year 5 students gathered as a faith community to celebrate Mass. Students learned about the courage and faithfulness of the prophet Elijah, whose trust in God inspired those around him. In the Gospel (Matthew 6:7 - 15), Jesus taught His disciples how to pray through the Lord's Prayer, reminding us to trust in our Heavenly Father and to show forgiveness to others. As we prayed together, students were encouraged to reflect on how they can follow Elijah's example of faith, deepen their relationship with God through prayer, and live out Jesus' call to forgive and love one another each day. May we continue to grow in faith, gratitude, and compassion as a community.

⚽ Stage 3 Soccer Gala Day Success! ⚽ On Wednesday, our Stage 3 Boys and Girls teams headed to Jamison Park for an action-packed day of soccer! All three teams played with immense heart, teamwork, and grit—including a few spectacular goals (one all the way from midfield!). While there were plenty of hard-earned victories and close battles, the real win was the incredible sportsmanship and pride our students showed. They were outstanding ambassadors for our school from start to finish. 🌟 A massive thank you to our amazing parent community for the sideline cheers, and a huge shoutout to our fantastic parent coaches—Mrs Cassar, Mr Spears, and Mr Thomas—for volunteering their time and expertise. Congratulations to all our Stage 3 soccer stars! 🥳🏆 #Stage3 #SoccerGalaDay #Teamwork #SchoolPride #CommunitySpirit

Our Year 5 scientists have been investigating mixtures, chemical changes, and the properties of materials through a range of exciting hands-on experiments. Students explored density using oil, water, and food colouring, observed the colourful movement of liquids in the Magic Milk experiment, and compared different material combinations to determine whether they formed mixtures or new substances. Through predicting, observing, recording results, and discussing their findings, students developed their scientific inquiry skills while discovering how scientists explain the world around them. 🔬🧪 A fantastic week of curiosity, investigation, and learning!
