NETBALL GALA DAY

Tomorrow we have five teams representing St John’s at the Western Region Netball Gala Day. We wish the students the very best on the Netball Court and encourage them all to be safe, responsible, organised and respectful. But most importantly to have fun! 

The day is non-competitive to cater for children of all abilities. Teams have been selected based on preferences given by children earlier in the year. The aim is to give everyone an opportunity to participate, regardless of skill or ability. 

We look forward to finding out all about the Gala Day on their return. A special thank you to Mrs Walker, Mrs Jeffery & Mr Nash for their support in organising and participating in the day.

Thanks also in anticipation to the parents, grandparents and friends for their support of the children tomorrow.

SVDP WINTER APPEAL

Over the last few weeks, the efforts of our St John’s community have been immense, living our Catholic social teaching- preferential treatment for the poor. A heartfelt thank you to everyone for coming together to ensure we can make a difference in our local community and providing for those most vulnerable and in need. 

This generosity was made evident by Jesus' teaching on the poor to help to build a more compassionate world.  Throughout the Bible, and especially in the Gospel narratives of the life of Jesus, we see many examples of God’s special concern for the poor and the powerless.

The donations of our K-6 students and families will go a long way during the winter season to provide comfort and warmth during the coldest months.
