As we approach the end of another beautiful year, we want to reflect on the incredible journey we have shared together. This year has been filled with significant growth in learning, students achieving copious successes and countless unforgettable moments. From the first day of school to this very moment, we have come together as a school community; students, staff, and families, supporting and inspiring each other every step of the way.

To our wonderful Kindergarten students, you have shown dedication and enthusiasm for learning. You have overcome challenges, discovered new talents, and have consistently demonstrated kindness and courage. Your accomplishments, both big and small, have made us immensely proud.

We have acknowledged our Year 6 leaders at their Graduation dinner and our Thanksgiving Mass, we would like to again say ‘Thank you’ for your leadership throughout the year – our Year 3/4/5 students have learnt so much from you and we know we will have wonderful leaders next year partly because of you! We wish you all the very best in the next part of your educational journey. Always remember to use those Kind Words with Kind voices and be Kind in all you do – may you always shine the light of Jesus’ love brightly.

Thank you to our families for your invaluable support. Your involvement, encouragement, and partnership have played an instrumental role in the success of our students. Your trust in our school and dedication to their education is appreciated. Together, we have created a strong foundation for our children’s future. A special thank you to our many dedicated and supportive families and friends who again raised significant funds that have been used to supply the school with additional resources. Thank you to everyone that helped in any way!

We would also like to extend our deepest gratitude to our remarkable staff family. Your unwavering commitment to providing a nurturing and engaging learning environment is truly commendable. Your passion for education, creativity in the classroom, and tireless efforts have helped shape our students into confident and capable individuals. We are extremely grateful for all the thousands of little extras that they all do to make our school a very special place every day!

The following members of our school community will be moving on – Fr Dominic, Bardawil, Mitchell, Ward and Clarke families and Mrs Anita Carter - and while we will miss them and appreciate all they have shared with our community over the years, we wish them happiness and success in their next adventure.

Planning for 2025 is well underway. Based on expected enrolments and current cohorts, our classes will be:

Kinder/Year 1 - Mrs Worland

Years 2/3 - Currently recruiting for this role.

Our outstanding support staff all continue in their roles. Mrs Shaw will be working 2 days a week, assisting with Learning Support. Mrs Elwin, Mrs Golding & Mrs Morris continue working with Ms Nicole and Ms Rebecca in Exec and Admin. We welcome Fr Hilary in early January and look forward to introducing him to the school community. Similar to this year, IntiaLit will run across all three infant years. We will continue to group for Maths across the school.  We will notify families of the outcome to the current recruitment early next year. 

May the Christmas break be filled with moments of joy, quiet moments, and shared adventures. Wishing you and your loved ones a safe and happy holiday season and a new year filled with hope, resilience, and togetherness.
