Easter Hat Parade:

On Friday 8 April, students will participate in an Easter Hat Parade. All students are invited to participate. The Easter Hat Parade has its  historical roots as a fancy head covering that people wore in readiness for the Easter celebration. During the Great Depression the Easter Hat was a simple luxury. It represents the harmony associated with having something new and the new life that we, as a Catholic community, celebrate at Easter.

Mindful Minutes:

This week the students began the regular classroom practice of Mindful Minutes. This is a short period of  time taken every Tuesday morning across the school where students have the opportunity to develop mindfulness strategies and teachers are able engage with students in a wellbeing check.

Mindful Minutes is a proactive and preventative approach to ensuring that our students are experiencing a healthy approach to personal wellbeing.
