PRINCIPAL REPORT - MR PETER HUGHES
As we come to the end of Term Three I would like to thank the school staff for their efforts this term.There is wonderful learning taking place in our classrooms every day and there is much to celebrate. I also thank our parents for the ongoing support which is seen in a variety of ways.
I hope the school holidays provide students and staff a chance to recharge their batteries and come back full of energy for what is always a busy time in the school calendar, term four. For those travelling, please do so safely.
Uniforms
A reminder to parents that the wearing of Summer uniforms begins next term. This includes school hats. If a child does not have a hat on the playground, they will be asked to move, and will be supervised, in a shaded area.
Mission Day
Thank you to Mrs Murray, teachers and our senior students for putting together many wonderful activities for Mission Day. Despite the chilly weather it was a huge success with very excited students supporting all the stalls.
MacKillop Athletics Championships
Congratulations to our 5 students who headed to Sydney this week to represent the Canberra-Goulburn Archdiocese in the MacKillop Athletics Championships. When watching the live stream it was obvious the competition was very strong! We had a great time in class either watching our kids compete or catching a glimpse of them on camera!!! Here are the results:
Henry Aiken - 13th in both the 11yrs 100m & 200m
Sam Presser - 11th in the 12-13yrs Long Jump
Kynan Burgess - 5th in the 11 yrs Long Jump (made the Top 5 - wahoo!!)
Harlee Cartwright - 8th in the 11yrs Discus

What an amazing effort to be Archdiocesan representatives and well done on your results! Amazing!!
