This term Kindergarten has been learning about the needs of living things and how to care for God's creation. This unit includes Students learning about the importance of new life, the life cycle of aminals and plants and how to take care of the environment and its creatures.
Kindergarten has been caring for little ducks. They have watched them grow and change from an egg to a duckling. Students have loved seeing the life cycle of the duck's progress and will now love and look after them as well as plan other ways to protect the environment and animals in the future .

How special is this 💙✨ Last week, the Sydney Morning Herald featured our very own Arielle and her mum in a thoughtful piece exploring one of the biggest questions families face: When is the right time to start Kindergarten? Their story captures the heart of what school beginnings are really about, which is readiness, confidence, relationships, and trusting each child’s journey. We’re so proud to see our Holy Family community reflected so beautifully in this conversation and to watch Arielle take her brave first steps into big school life 🥹🎒 Because here, we know that starting school isn’t just about age, it’s about feeling safe, known and ready to grow 🌱💛

Transitioning smoothly into ‘big school’: What parents need to know
The first day of Kindergarten! It’s a milestone filled with excitement, pride and maybe a few nerves (for both you and your child!). Starting “big school” marks the beginning of a whole new adventure, and with a little preparation, you can help make those first weeks calm, confident and full of smiles.

The Feast of the Holy Family reminds us that every family, despite its imperfections, is called to holiness. By looking to Jesus, Mary, and Joseph, we can strive to build families rooted in faith, love, and service, becoming a beacon of hope and light in the world.✨ May the Holy Family intercede for us and inspire us to live as true “domestic churches,” bringing Christ’s presence into our homes and communities.🙏

✨ Merry Christmas from the staff of Holy Family East Granville! ✨ As we gathered to create this little snapshot of Christmas joy, our hearts were drawn back to the true meaning of this season, Christ coming to us in love, humility and hope. Just as the Holy Family welcomed Jesus into the world, we too are called to make room in our own hearts for His peace and light. This year, we have laughed, learned, prayed, grown and journeyed together as a community. And in every moment, the big, the small, the messy and the magical, God has been with us. 💛✨ Christmas reminds us that love became present in the simplest of ways: a child, a manger, a promise. May that same love be born again in each of our families this season. From our Holy Family to yours, 🎄❤️ May the joy of Christ fill your homes, may His peace rest in your hearts, and may His hope guide you into the new year. Merry Christmas & God bless! — The Staff of Holy Family East Granville 🙏✨🎁
