Dear Parents and Carers
Camps
On Monday and Tuesday, our Year 4 students attended their very first school camp. Camp Tunnell Ridge offered fantastic adventure activities in a beautiful setting. This was a time for students to grow in resilience and grit, which we know are vital skills that can be grown under the right conditions.
Have a look at some of the fun they got up to…
Mother's Day Event
Attention Mum's and Motherly figures. There’s still time to get your family team ready and come along for some fun and connection.

Junior School Parent Group
We are so blessed to have a vibrant parent community who are committed to supporting our families and staff. We have a group of parents who currently meet at 8:40am on Mondays at the Mango Cafe to pray for our College.
As a way of building connections within our community, this group are hosting a mother’s catch up before the Mother’s Day Amazing Race. If you would like to connect with other mums, please meet at the Mango Cafe at 2pm on the 8th of May. This is a relaxed opportunity to share your experiences of motherhood, connect with mums who are navigating similar situations and grow your community. We hope to see you there.
