Pupil Free Day

We have had a very valuable day of professional learning around the Principles and attributes of quality assessment, Feedback, our Moderation process and Developing a folio of work with reference to the Standard Elaborations for the Australian Curriculum. While none of this is particularly new, it is important that we take days like today to review our practice to discern what is working well and identify areas for improvement. This is important in any school but even more so in a school that is growing as fast as we are. I am very grateful to our parents who have had to make adjustments to their work schedule to accommodate days like this for us and especially to our staff who always engage so professionally with such a positive approach to being the best we can.

Festival of Sport

This week we had over 50 of our senior students represent our school in the Townsville Catholic Education Festival of Sport. We had students participating in an Oz Tag, Netball and Basketball competition. From all reports, students have had a fantastic day with lots of competition and great sportsmanship.

Father’s Day

I would like to take this opportunity to wish all our Fathers and father figures in a school a very special day on Sunday. It looks like our Mini Golf Fun Day is going to be quite an event with lots of families joining in. 

Have a fabulous week. 

Cheers
