Easter Prayer
God, may we feel the warm embrace of your love during the Easter period. May the glory of Jesus’s resurrection remind us that with You, nothing is impossible or without hope.
Lord, thank You for this Easter celebration and all the gifts you give us, especially for the gift of your Son. We pray in Your name. Amen.
Wishing families a joyous Easter.

Year 5’s Community Outreach Program
Over the last two weeks several of our year 5 students have visited Bruthen Street Kinder and Guardian Childcare to promote our school, establish community relationships and support the learning of pre- school children. Mrs Donlon and myself have been so impressed by the way our students have conducted themselves in these settings. They have demonstrated kindness, a willingness to help and interact with younger children, exemplary manners and confidence in talking to other teachers and support staff.
This term will end on Thursday, 6 April at 3:30
