30th Anniversary History Snippets

In 1993 the school, as we know it today, really began to take shape.  May 1993 saw the roof structure going on to the Administration Block.  By June of that same year the Administration Block was almost fully completed.  1993 was clearly a busy year for the school.  The final photograph shows the building of the canteen as it looked in June 1993.  This was part of Stage 2 of the site deployment.  The Stage 2 buildings were officially opened early in 1994.

Making Jesus Real Term 2 Week 1

THANKFUL

Our focus for this fortnight is being THANKFUL or having gratitude.  In our busy lives it is very important to be thankful for what we have.  The little things like clean clothes, a warm bed, food in our lunch boxes, friends to play with, family that loves you, teaching staff that care about you. 

Many, many things in our lives we take for granted.  A cooked meal each nigh from Mum or Dad, a puppy that greets you when you arrive home each day, a nice school to go to each day.

It is time to start to be grateful for all we have in our lives and to show our appreciation for these little things we take for granted.  Say thanks to Mum and Dad for a lovely meal, show our friends we care about them by being a nice friend.  Helping people around us that need a hand. “Are you OK?, Can I help you with that?

 Choosing an attitude of gratitude not only honours God…it’s good for us!

Pre-Primary, Year 1 and Year 5 visit to St Francis of Assisi Church

Preprimary, Year 1 and Year 5 visited St Francis of Assisi Church on Wednesday, to learn about the different parts of the church and the surrounding grounds.  The Year 5 students acted as tour guides, showing and explaining the many special things that the students see when they come to the Church.  It was a wonderful learning experience for all the students.
