Last Sunday’s Gospel

We hear one of the lesser known parables where a master, who is possibly dishonest himself, tells his steward that he is going to dismiss him for mismanaging his resources. The wily steward cheats the master by making deals to ensure he will have people to look after him once he is dismissed. Jesus used this to tell us that we must use what is in this world to ensure that we have life in Eternity. Also that we have to show that we can be trusted with small things so the really important things will be given to us.

From the Principal and Assistant Principal…

Well wishes for Mrs Rolfe and Mrs Mae

We would like to wish Mrs Rolfe and Mrs Mae all the best as they join staff and Leaders from across the diocese on a Pilgrimage. This  Jubilee Year, the Church celebrates the theme Pilgrims of Hope, encouraging us all to live with hope in God and to share that hope with others. To celebrate and mark this significant event for our international Catholic community, Mrs Rolfe and Mrs Mae will join a special Jubilee Year Pilgrimage to Ireland and Italy, led by Bishop Brian Mascord and Mr Peter Hill - Executive Director. We will welcome back Mrs Rolfe in Week 2 and Mrs Mae in Week 4. 

Assembly Friday 26 September

On Friday, we will hold our last assembly for Term 3. Our Year 3 students will be hosting. We recognise that we have a number of Mission Awards to catch up on, as well as our normal class awards. We will be starting the Assembly early, with gates opening at 1:25 pm for a 1:30 pm start. 

Swimming Lessons

We are all ready to start swimming lessons for K-2 beginning Monday, 20 October  (Week 2). A paper consent form (for Eagle Vale Central) went home earlier this week and needs to be returned by this Friday. School consent needs to be provided via Compass, along with the $65.00 payment. This also needs to be provided by Friday 10 October. 

Musica Viva

On Tuesday 14 October (Week 1) the students in K - 6 will participate in a Musica Viva show called Moon Radio Hour. Moon Radio Hour takes students on an imaginative fast-paced journey through space, time and the unexpected! Paired with saxophones, guitars and an electronic sampler, the result is a spontaneously immersive musical experience where anything is possible. Students will be given the tools to create their own short musical skit-shows in the classroom, allowing them to embrace the unexpected that lies within their own creativity.

Happy break!

We hope you all have a safe and happy break with your children. It’s warming up and a great time to make some more memories.
