Deputy Principal Report
ENRICHMENT CHOIR
The Enrichment Choir is held in the Music Room every Thursday at Lunch 2. Our training sessions always start with a vocal warm up, then we practise our pitch skills by singing scales. Other areas we focus on are breathing, pace, diction and stage presence. The Enrichment Choir works very hard to learn and perfect many liturgical songs which we sing at each whole school mass. We also work on pop songs so that we can practise singing melodies and harmonies.

What does it feel like to be part of the Enrichment Choir?
Gabriella and Angelica (Year 5)
It’s really fun to be part of the Enrichment Choir as all of the girls and boys are really nice and welcoming. We sing at the whole school masses and we really love it!
Marlena (Year 6)
It’s a cool opportunity to do something fun at lunch time. It is great to perform at Masses and in general. Ms Johnson teaches and helps us improve so we can sing to the best of our abilities.
FIRST HOLY COMMUNION
On Saturday, 10th June & Sunday, 11th June, many of our Year 3 students made their First Holy Communion. They were all very well prepared to receive Jesus in the Eucharist. We congratulate these candidates, their families, our Parish Priests and the Sacramental Team for the beautiful celebrations over the weekend.
A special thank you to Mrs Hampton and many of our teachers for giving up their time to lead the Sacramental workshops.
STUDENTS ARRIVING TO SCHOOL ON TIME
Just a reminder that students need to arrive at school before 8:45am when school commences. This is extremely important for children so they can move into class ready for learning at the start of the day. Important messages are also shared that provide information to support their learning and well being.
We understand it can be a challenge on some mornings getting organised for the school day. This is just a reminder for some parents and carers, to ensure that children do arrive at school on time. We thank you for your consideration of this matter.
LOST PROPERTY
There is a lot of lost property currently sitting outside the office at the moment. A range of jackets, jumpers and hats. If your child has misplaced a piece of their uniform we would encourage you to look in the baskets outside the office door that leads out to the playground.
