Kindergarten loved having the ducks in their learning space over the past two weeks and watching them grow. All good things must come to an end, though, as our feathery little friends waddled off to somewhere with more space for them to grow. 🦆 🦆 🦆 🦆 🦆

Last week, children from across Years 3-6 participated in the Netball Gala Day. They had a lot of fun representing the school and playing as a team. Special mention must go to our Year 6 Boys team, who topped their division. Here they are after receiving their medals at assembly last Friday. Thank you for Mr Fitzsimons for his organisation, and to Mrs Fox, Miss Wilson and Mrs Luland for your support of our netball teams.

CUTENESS ALERT! Kindergarten have had some very special visitors join them this week… 12 ducklings have hatched in their classroom! The ducklings were so eager; some could hardly wait for Kindergarten to get back to school! 🥚➡️🦆 Kindergarten have absolutely loved watching them hatch over the past few days and learning about their life cycle. Once the ducklings get a little bigger, Kindergarten will be able to take them outside for some fresh air and exploring. They can’t wait!

Happy Feast Day of Our Lady of the Rosary! With the feast day falling during the school holidays, we took the opportunity to celebrate on the last day of term. After a Marian Gallery Walk of artworks we created earlier in the week, we gathered as a school community to celebrate Mass. After Mass, we enjoyed a sweet treat and an afternoon of games in a carnival-like atmosphere. OLOR Day was the culmination of a "Feast Week" of celebrations, including an art competition, creative writing, wellbeing and sport activities. Our Lady of the Rosary, Pray for Us.
