APRE News

Welcome to the end of Week 7!  It appears as though we are on the downhill slide until the end of Term 3, but there is still plenty of things happening to finish the term.  Some of these things include; Cricket Blast Competition (Thursday Sept 4), Pupil Free Day (Friday Sept 5), Prep Stay and Play #2 (Thurs Sept 11), Parent Teacher Interviews (Tues and Wed Week 9), Year 3 - 6 Swimming Carnival (Friday Sept 12), St Benedict's NAIDOC Celebrations (Week 10) and the U10 Blackhawks Challenge (Friday Sept 19) - phew!

Today’s assembly was led by the Year 3 Brolgas on the Assumption of Mary, the Mother of Jesus.   The Assumption of Mary is the belief that when Mary, the mother of Jesus, died, she was taken directly into heaven with both her body and her soul. It's a key teaching for Catholics, and was once a day of prayerful obligation.  The Brolgas prayed that we might be filled with strength and courage like Mary, so that we might be hope-filled and generous people.  

There was no assembly last week due to our Book Week Parade - it was wonderful to see our community come together in a colourful morning to celebrate the love of books and reading!
