It has been an eventful start to Term 1, 2018 with our annual school Swimming Carnival being held on Wednesday the 7th of February at Granville Swimming Centre. We had fantastic weather and all staff and students who attended the event had fun and showed great sportsmanship.
All Students had the opportunity to gain house points by participating in both main pool events as well as novelty races.
The final House results for the 2018 swimming carnival were:
1st Kerrigan (160 points) 2nd MacKillop (147 points) 3rd Martin (142 points)
4th Stack (139 points)
Congratulations to the Kerrigan House on winning the overall point score for the day.
Thank you to the parents who provided support and encouragement to the students on the day. Your presence is always so important on these days. Special thanks to Mr Griffiths who was a valued parent helper on the day.
Finally, we would like to take this opportunity to thank and congratulate the staff on another successful event. Thank you for your enthusiasm, and dedication to ensuring our students have a safe and great day.

π Itβs all about kindness!! π Miss A teamed up with some of our students this week to explore what kindness really means. Their beautiful insights reminded us that kindness is more than just an action, it lifts spirits, creates joy, and helps us all feel connected. π As Scripture reminds us: π βAnxiety weighs down the heart, but a kind word cheers it up.β β Proverbs 12:25 Letβs continue to cheer each other up with our words and actions because kindness is contagious! β¨
