Dear Parents and Carers,

This week has truly tested our resilience, from the scorching heat early on to the steady rain that followed. Through it all, our staff and students have shown incredible strength and adaptability. Our Prep and Stage One students demonstrated this beautifully at Wednesday’s combined campus swimming carnival, stepping out of their comfort zones, creating lasting memories, and spreading so much joy.

As we look ahead to Friday 31 October, World Teachers’ Day, we give thanks to God for the gift of our teachers and the way they help create a Christ-centred environment where every child feels safe, valued, and deeply loved.
