Dear Parents and Carers
Shrek - Musical
Today we had the opportunity to attend a matinee performance of Shrek the musical, performed by our MSS students. This well-known story was thoroughly enjoyed by audience, showcasing impressive song and dance items.
The Friday night show is SOLD OUT but there are still a select number of tickets available for tonight's show.
Please book your tickets online: https://www.trybooking.com/events/landing/1174831?
Mother's Day Event
Yesterday afternoon, we had our families and their motherly figures show up ready to play and ready to win. There were all sorts of fun activities like cup stack, tongue twisters and a cookie face challenge. It was lovely to see the students working together in teams with their Mum and connecting over shared challenge and competition. There may have been a little resilience building for the students… and some of the mothers too.
Under 8s Day
Under 8s day is coming up for our Prep and Stage 1 students. Please see all the details on the flyer attached. There will be a sausage sizzle available, orders can be placed by using the link below.
College Leadership
Applications for leadership are due by week 6. Students in Years 3-6 who have applied for leadership will be presented at our College Leaders Assembly on the 7 June this Term.
To apply for a position, we ask students to write a letter to Mrs O’Donnell outlining the service that they are already involved in, frequency and impact that this has on the College. Letters can be brought to front Reception.
