Leadership Report

Kindergarten 2026!

Yes, it's already that time of the year where we begin to meet with our new kindergarten candidates for next year with their parents, for Interviews with the Principal. It is a joy to see these eager faces and to talk with parents to set their children up for success at big school. These interviews will be continuing next week and into next term.

Eucharist Celebration

What a beautiful celebration we shared on Sunday as 14 of our students received their first Sacrament of the Eucharist at St Peter the Fisherman Catholic Church. It was a truly special event for our parish community, and we are so proud of all the children who took part with reverence and joy. After Mass, a lovely morning tea was held in the Church hall for all to enjoy. Thank you to Mrs Wilson for organising the event, Mr Marshall for preparing the children, Fr Michael for giving the Mass and many of our Staff, families and parishioners for your support of these children.

Semester Reports & Parent-Teacher Interviews

Student reports have been released today via Compass, providing insight into your child’s progress and achievements. Reports can be found by clicking on your child's profile picture in the Compass app, and then clicking on the Reports tab.

Bookings for Parent-Teacher Interviews are still open but will close on Sunday evening. Changes to booked times will then need to be made by calling the office. We encourage all families to book a time to connect with your child’s teacher during next week. Please remember to always sign in and out at the office/iPads when you come onsite, including after 3pm. 

Dance Team Showcase & Eisteddfod

Our Dance Teams lit up the hall floor today with a fantastic in-school showcase! Congratulations to our Stage One ‘Brave-Variety’, Stage Two ‘Boom Boom-Hip Hop’ and Stage 3 ‘MJ remix’. We now look forward to cheering them on at the Eisteddfod next Thursday—best of luck to all our performers!

What's Been Happening

Kindergarten Museum of Me

In History this semester, Kindergarten students have been exploring their family history and learning how things change over time. Students have loved sharing special items from when they were babies with their classmates. On Monday, the Library was transformed into a wonderful exhibition space where students proudly showcased their treasures with our school community.

Year 6 Art 

Year 6 have been working on learning the art of marbling. We believe they have done the most amazing job. What do you think?

Golden Egg Drop Challenge!

This week in Kindergarten, we had another egg-citing science experiment! The children were challenged to find out which materials would best protect "Jack's golden egg" if it fell from the sky. With only 4 eggs available for the experiment, Mrs. Larkan used the trusty paddle pop stick name picker to select four lucky students to bring their egg-saving designs to life. The rest of the class eagerly watched and learned as each creation was put to the test.
