On Wednesday we FINALLY got to have our annual Athletics Carnival. It was windy and cold but at least the rain kept away!
The day was a success with everyone having a good time. The sportsmanship, support and encouragement on display by the students is to be commended.
Our Sports Captains did a fine job motivating their colour houses and helping me set up in the morning … so a big “Thank you” to them and their parents for dropping them off early on Wednesday.
To the parent helpers who volunteered prior to the carnival and then on the day … a very big THANK YOU! Without your help and support the day would not have run as smoothly as it did. I really appreciate you giving up the chance to simply watch the carnival and get in and assist us – it is all for the children after all.
The results of the carnival are as follows: Winning Colour House- Lawson

Today we celebrate the feast of Saint Patrick. As a missionary and bishop, Saint Patrick dedicated his life to sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ with the people of Ireland. His courage, faith, and trust in God remind us that even one person, guided by the Holy Spirit, can help bring light and hope to many. May we be inspired by Saint Patrick’s example to live our faith with joy, kindness, and courage in our own community. “Christ with me, Christ before me, Christ behind me, Christ in me.” Happy Saint Patrick’s Day to all in our school community. ☘️
