God our Father,

You sent you Holy Spirit upon the apostles,

And through them and your successors

You give the Spirit to your people.

May Christ's work begun at Pentecost continue to grow in the hearts of all who believe.

We ask this through Christ our Lord, Amen

Dear Friends,

What a wonderful end to Term 3 we are having, especially with the Sacrament of Confirmation celebrated on Tuesday night in our Parish Church, with the Archbishop. Thank you to Emily Capper our REC, the 5 /6 teachers and to all parents and children involved in the preparation and celebration together. Such a wonderful and prayerful night for our Parish school community.

Thank you also to all those who were able to attend the Learning Journeys, Grandparents Day, Book Fair and Working Bee last week!!  The Learning Journeys gave our students opportunities to share and celebrate their learning and development of individual goals set throughout the year.  We were so blessed to have so many grandparents then join us for a very special prayer assembly hosted by every Kindergarten child. Grandparents then visited classrooms and shared a morning tea of scones out in the sunshine in our Kitchen Garden.  A huge thank you also to all the parents at the end of the day who came and gave of their time for a few hours at the working bee. During this time, we were able to finish landscaping the front of the school, clean up gardens and complete some work at the ELC.  We have planned to concrete a path down the side of the new sloped area out the front to meet up with the existing pathway as the weather becomes hotter.  This will be a much safer option for parents escorting their children to and from cars on Theodore street.

This week we acknolwedged the very generous money raised from the Obstacool event earlier this term. The students who raised significant amounts of money were treated to a special lunch with Cath Day and myself- lots of fun!!
