Reconciliation Week

Each day of Reconciliation Week, the students listened to indigenous stories and discussed the significance of reconciliation and becoming one as a nation. The students discussed how they can help with reconciliation, did craft activities with an indigenous focus and even wrote their own Dreamtime stories. At the conclusion of the week, we held a Liturgy, where we prayed, sang songs and reflected on what reconciliation means to us.

Swimming & Sport in Seymour

On Tuesday June 6th, our students traveled to Seymour for swimming lessons and an indoor sports session. While our F/1/2/3 students did swimming, the 4/5/6’s did ball skills on the indoor basketball court and then they were able to swap over. The students all had a really positive attitude towards their lessons and are looking forward to continuing these sessions each week for the next 6 weeks. With the very rainy weather, it was the perfect week to be active indoors!
