PRINCIPAL'S DESK:
Dear Parents and Carers,
As we journey towards the end of Term One it is timely to look back at our collective achievements throughout the past ten weeks. A few of the highlights in the area of Faith, Learning and Well-Being include:
- Our Beginning of the Year Parish Mass, and induction of our Student Leaders
- A relentless focus on high quality learning, with teacher collaboration, data and strong leadership presence in classrooms a crucial part of our work
- A well attended Welcome BBQ, with over 300 plus people, supported by our wonderful P and F Executive
- The launch of our 3.7 million dollar building refurbishment and Adventure Playground
- A Harmony day parade, showcasing our student diversity, followed by a cultural Morning Tea
- Welcoming our Kindergarten 2025 cohort, who are settled and in strong routines
- A well attended Open Day for families wishing to join our community in 2026
- A successful Cross Country Carnival and Swimming Selection Trials
- Three of our students being selected to attend the Mackillop Swimming Trials: Chase Wright Matthews, Parker Payne ans Angus Barlow.
- Zara Head representing the Diocese in the Mackillop Cricket Team
- Maya Sepavelda selected in the Diocese of Wollongong Netball Team
- Liam Sweeney, Jacob Dowler and CJ Agno represented in the Diocese of Wollongong Basketball Team
- Maddi Timmins and Evelyn Barlow Selected in the Diocese of Wollongong Touch Football Team
- A well attended Working Bee, which saw the Canteen rebranded as the “Well-Being Cafe”
and this is just a few of our achievements! I am so proud of our beautiful and supportive community and thank you as parents for your ongoing support.
I wish you a safe and relaxing vacation period and abundant blessings for the Easter Season.
Sincerely
Pauline Chrostowski
Principal
