This weekend was a big one for Lara Griffiths. The 10 year old student from 5B was crowned regional champion at the Hollywood Bound Dance Championships.
During the awards ceremony, Lara also received the wonderful news that she has won a trip and been selected to represent Australia once again at the Dance World Cup and World Dance Movement events in Europe next year. It won’t be easy as Lara moves up an age division in 2019, but she is still hoping to bring home another medal to accompany the Bronze that she earned at the Dance World Cup in Spain a couple of months ago.
Lara dances at PAC Station Dance Studio in Seven Hills and is the first dancer and ambassador to be selected on the Australian team for 2019.

World Teachers' Day celebrations today at Our Lady Queen of Peace! π«ππβοΈβοΈππ 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!) π Miss Stevens π Miss Cleur π Miss Raffoul π Mr Aboufarah π Mrs Elias π Mrs Buhagiar π Miss Chahin π 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 βοΈ β¨οΈ π29 Oct 2026

Yesterday, our students had the wonderful opportunity to experience the Musica Viva Concert, El Camino. The performance introduced students to the vibrant sounds, rhythms and traditions of South American music. They thoroughly enjoyed listening, participating and sharing in this engaging musical experience. It was a fantastic opportunity to explore music from another part of the world, broaden their cultural understanding and celebrate the joy of music together.
