Cross Country Carnival

Year 4 Fundraiser - Rugby Barbeque 

A huge thank you to our Year 4 coordinators, Catherine and Dave Culley, Craig Croker, Marty Reynolds and Daniel Walsh, and all the families (Year 4 and other), for supporting our fundraising barbeque on Saturday. Unfortunately, the weather kept the crowds away and all of your efforts did not reap the usual benefits. Your time and effort is very much appreciated though!

Showcase of Learning

Tomorrow at 12.30pm Year Five and Year Six will present our first Showcase of Learning Assembly.  This will be held in our Old Hall. All welcome.

Year 6 Camp

Next Tuesday 9 April, Year 6 head off with Mrs Croker and Mrs Spackman to The Academy of Sport, Narrabeen. They are leaving from Trinity Catholic College at 7.45am and I would like to thank them for the kind donation of their bus, with Mrs Tarlinton at the helm. This has helped reduce the final cost of the camp.

We wish them a wonderful week full of safe adventures! We can't wait to hear all about it next term.

ANZAC Day

ANZAC Day is during the last week of the school holidays on Thursday 25 April. We invite all students to participate in the ANZAC Day events, commencing with Mass at 9.00am and then followed by the March at 10.30am. The wreath is presented by our Captains and blessed at the Mass.

Students are asked to come along dressed in their full winter uniform. They are to assemble for the March in the RSL Car Park. The March moves down Goulburn Street to the Memorial Park for the ANZAC Day Commemoration Ceremony. Students remain assembled until this Ceremony concludes.

It would be wonderful to see many of our students at this special ceremony.

Uniform Matters

As our weather starts to cool the students are able to wear their full winter uniform, if required. It has been pleasing to note that students have not been wearing a mixture of our summer and winter uniforms this week, thank you.

Next term the students are to wear the winter uniform, however, a two-week leeway is given if the weather is still warm enough for the summer uniform. 

In preparation for the cooler months, you might like to order our school coat, which is a warm bottle green parka style coat, from our Uniform Shop. No other coats will be permitted, however, bottle green gloves and beanies may be purchased elsewhere. 

Some other reminders about our school uniform- hair accessories must be in the school colours only, earrings must be sleepers and studs only and no nail polish is to be worn to school.
