Dear Parents

Welcome to Term 2. I hope that you all had the opportunity to enjoy some family time over the break. It was great to see all of the students with big smiles on their faces today.

On Monday, the staff spent time looking at the Australian Professional Standards for teachers. This was a very worthwhile day.

With the weather starting to turn cold, all students will be expected to be in their formal winter uniform by the end of Week 3 (Friday 12th May). Some students have already made the transition which is fine. Requirements for uniforms etc are available on our website. Please take the time to look at these.

We welcome to our school community Nicholas 5P and James 3T Wilkinson and their family. We hope your time with us is enjoyable and rewarding.

During the holidays we celebrated the greatest feast in our Church and school year – Easter. The death and resurrection of Jesus is the central belief of our Christian faith. The heart of the Easter message is that Jesus is risen and is with us now!

But Easter is not just a day or even a weekend. It’s a whole season that lasts 50 days finishing at Pentecost. It is a season of joy and happiness. It can be seen as a time of celebration, a time of renewal, a time of peace, a time of promise and a time of new beginnings.

The Easter Season calls us to be seekers, proclaimers and people of hope and life. It reminds us that we are not alone – we have never been alone. Jesus is with us now and forever! The Resurrection calls us to make a difference in our world. As people of the Resurrection we are called to reach out to the suffering and care for creation.
