One more sleep to go! Tomorrow we are thrilled to catch up with our students & community as we commence the school year. We extend a warm welcome to our Prep families who will also be taking the first big step in their school journey. Staff returned to school last Friday & we have been busy planning & preparing for the new school term. Needless to say, we’re excited too & look forward to working with each family to ensure the very best care for the wellbeing & learning needs of our students. School gates open at 8.30am - see you then! 💙

The goal of our special Step-Up morning is to build a sense of connection & belonging which the students will look forward to upon their return to school in 2023. Thanks to all students for your enthusiasm, flexibility & allowing this morning to be a positive experience. ✨

So humbling to see the generosity of our community during our annual Christmas Appeal to St Vincent De Paul. Over 40 boxes of food and gift donations were loaded into the Vinnies van by our helpful Seniors which will be distributed at their Fawkner branch.

Congratulations to our Year 6 Maths extension stud

Congratulations to our Year 6 Maths extension students who received an Honorable Mention in this year's SSA National Schools Poster Competition.
The students investigated, researched & collected data on a topic of their choice, after a focus on statistics during Term 3. We are so proud of their completed work & findings! 👏
The SSA National Schools Poster Competition is a fun, project-based learning activity which encourages primary school students to develop, implement and creatively report upon an investigation on any topic of interest to them. Thank you to Katrina Scurrah for her support.

How proud we are of our Year 5 emerging student leaders! In the past week this wonderful group of students have presented their speeches to our community for the various student leader positions of School, House, Sustainability & Mini Vinnies Captains. All spoke confidently about their ideas for our school & the qualities which make them good student leader candidates. The Year 5’s also demonstrated great leadership & care towards our new Prep 2023 students & families during their recent orientation. Well done to all! We can’t wait to see your future achievements! 👏

In remembrance and gratitude, our community gather

In remembrance and gratitude, our community gathered to honour those who have served and died in wars. Our Seniors led a whole school reflection where the symbolism of the poppy was explained and 'In Flanders Field' was reflected on. A deeper appreciation of Remembrance Day was achieved in our learning through various class activities whilst our Year 3/4's were honoured to attend an educational session at @the.coburg.rsl
We continue to pray that the spirit of peace & good will rest upon all those still impacted by war. 🌺

We’re officially open! Today marked the official opening of our vibrant new junior learning spaces. Our ceremony was attended by Lizzie Blandthorn our local member, who is a great supporter of Catholic education & St Paul’s. Other guests included representatives from @melbournecatholicschools , Stephen Green from @clarkehopkinsclarke & John Springett our awesome builder @chippaconstructions This was led & completed with a blessing from parish priest Father James.
Thank you to our families who joined us & ALL our community for your patience during the build, especially our students & staff for your incredible patience & flexibility! The redevelopment was completed in just over a year, some of it during Covid. It was worth the wait as these wonderful learning spaces are now being enjoyed by students and are the perfect space for contemporary learning with it’s flexible facilities to cater for a variety of learning styles, co-teaching, small group learning & events. We couldn’t be happier! We acknowledge & thank the Victorian govt for it’s generous redevelopment grant.

Tomorrow is Day for Daniel - a national day to educate children about child safety. It aims to help empower our children to Recognise, React and Report if they feel something is not right. During the past two weeks our students have learning about personal safety in a whole school approach.
