Dear parents and carers,

Last Friday morning we had quite a number of different book characters here with us at school.

It was terrific to see the children enter into the spirit of the event and ensure that they were reflecting their chosen character accurately.
Thank you to everyone who joined us on the morning, it was great to see you here.

Archdiocesan Athletics – Congratulations to Banjo and Hugh who participated in individual events and our small schools relay team - William, Cooper, Hamish and Hugh on your efforts at the Archdiocesan Athletics carnival in Canberra last week.

This week, we have hosted visitors from Catholic Education. Mrs Caddey-Murphy, Professor Lowe and Mrs Nash worked with the Yr. 5/6 class in the area of English. In particular, they worked on writing and the development of characters in a piece of writing.
This has provided insights in to works that the children are in the process of developing and I am quite sure that these will be ready to share at our publication day on Friday September 20. We are planning to hold this day so that you can come along and read some of the publications that all of the children have been working on in class.

We have continued watching our ovals’ transformation this week. The new turf is coming along well. We are still in something of a waiting phase as the turf establishes itself. We are very much looking forward to being able to use this renovated play space before the end of term.

REC/Priests/Principal from across the Archdiocese will attend the annual meeting in Canberra tomorrow. This day is the beginning of our panning for 2020 and both Mrs King and I will be attending the day.

Sincerely,
