On Tuesday 5th May, 44 students got up bright and early to attend the Diocesan Cross Country carnival at Sydney Motorsport Park, Eastern Creek. It was a long day, but thanks to the beautiful weather and excellent behaviour by all students it was also a lovely day.

All students performed to the best of their ability and did themselves and their parents very proud. 3 students ran so well that they placed in the top 8 in their age group and now get to run all over again on 12th June at the Inter-Diocesan carnival.

Kiara De Angelis placed 6th in the 10 yr girls Isaac Elias also placed 6th in the 11 yr boys and Trisha Castelino placed 2nd in the 11 yr girls. A huge congratulations to those fantastic long distance runners! We wish you all the very best for this next level of competition.

Thank you to Mrs Galea and Mrs Maunder for coming to help out on the day and congratulations once again to all our competitors for the sportsmanship you displayed both on and off the track.

    World Teachers' Day celebrations today at Our Lady Queen of Peace! πŸ«πŸ“’πŸ“šβœοΈβ˜•οΈπŸŽπŸ A busy and fulfilling day for all as we enjoyed: - a morning gathering for staff - small gifts for each staff member - morning tea organised by the P&F - afternoon assembly and prayer led by Kindy. Perhaps the most surprising and entertaining part of the day though, included staff participation in the 'Have you got an apple?' game. We are sure the children can update you on the game rules as they watched their teachers play. Some tactical, creative and fierce competition was on show to secure the winning prizes! Congratulations to the following staff members who won the game (with or without bribery!) 🍎 Miss Stevens 🍏 Miss Cleur 🍎 Miss Raffoul 🍏 Mr Aboufarah 🍎 Mrs Elias 🍏 Mrs Buhagiar 🍎 Miss Chahin 🍏 Mr McElhone (unable to claim his prize so this was handed over to the most enthusiastic participant of the day, Mr Vicic). Thank you again to our P&F for generously organising the morning tea for staff and acknowledging the great work our staff do each day. It is a privilege to work in partnership with you, guiding, leading and teaching the children of OLQP. And to our teachers- Keep shining bright β˜€οΈ ✨️ 🌟
