Help us to open our hearts to others
even when it is challenging.

A line from our school prayer

Mini-Vinnies

On Monday I was fortunate to take a crew from our Mini-Vinnies team down to the Archie Graham centre to participate in Meals on Wheels. We picked up our meals and a trolley to walk around Heatherlie dropping off the meals to people in our community. Such a simple yet important service. Each week a different group will head down and support the Meals on Wheels program under the leadership of Di Brown.  This opportunity is an expression of our students “opening their hearts to others”. 

School Cross Country

Good luck to all of the children for the big Cross Country run next Monday (details below).  I really enjoy barracking for the children in cross country because it is hard.  Regardless of natural ability and fitness levels the event gets everyone puffed. I will particularly be looking out for those kids who are not naturals, middle of the pack somewhere who are giving it their all. These kids inspire me as they just get on with it and do their best. Good Luck. 

Anzac Day

Thanks to Mrs Lee and Mrs O’Brien for organising our students for the ANZAC Day ceremonies and to our leaders for their respectful participation.  

Mother’s Day Gifts

Thanks to the dad’s who came along last night to wrap the Mother’s Day gifts and to Mrs Saywell for organising the gifts and the wrapping system which was in her words was "ïdiot proof”.

Assembly

No Assembly this Week 

Finally, enjoy race week.  We are lucky to have such a great event in our town.
