Tapping into parent expertise
Part of the school's vision is to value the skills that our parent's can offer.. tap into the expertise of our parents and carers. In the past few years, we have had different working groups eg. Cultural, Grants, Health & Safety, Child Safety. These working groups replaced the POPE forums and allowed an opportunity for parents to contribute their skills and voice to strengthen the activities at school.
The Faith & Community team have prepared an invitation for parents to share their skills to support teaching and learning. For example, when teaching about Civics and Citizenship, having parents or community members who work in Government or for the Council are rich sources of information to include in our children's learning.
Musical Showcase of Learning
Years 3 to 6 and the Choir
On Friday, June 24th, commencing at 11.15am, Students in Years 3 to 6 and the Choir will be performing items they have learnt in Music this year.
Years Prep, 1 and 2 will be in the audience for these performances. Unfortunately, due to COVID 19 restrictions, parents are not able to attend. However, if it is possible, a video will be taken of each performance next week during music lesson time. These can then be viewed at home.
Students in Years 3 - 6, and the choir, have been rehearsing for this event and are very excited to perform to an audience!
Sporting News
This week, many of our Year 5/6's competed at the Dendy Lightning Premierships against schools within our district. Some very keen and athletic students even competed in more than one event.
Soccer Lighting Prem
We took a boys team and girls team on Wednesday down to Dendy Park, East Brighton. The boys were coached by Mr Daidone and gave it a solid crack, however they were up against some extremely tough competition. Our girls team were coached by Miss Currenti and they finished in grand final spot against St Joan of Arc. The girls ended up in an exciting over time penalty shoot out battle. Unfortunately we didn't come away with the win, but it was a superb effort by all and they should be extremely proud of their efforts. A huge thank you to Greg Blair Smith for umpiring on the day and Luke and Isabel for coaching.
Netball Lightning Prem
On Thursday we took 3x netball teams across to Duncan McKinnon to compete in the A Grade Girls (Coached by Gabby Parr), Mixed A (Coached by Miss Trott) and Mixed B team (Coached by Pip). All three teams fought it out on the court and displayed some excellent skills and team work. Overall our A-Girls finished 3rd, A-Mixed finished 5th and B-Mixed finished 3rd. Well done to all and a huge thank you to LSO Lucy for umpiring, Pip and Gabby for coaching.
AFL Lightning Prem
On Friday we took 1xteam to DW Lucas, East Malvern to compete and run around in some very wet and tough conditions. Our boys and girls fought hard, kicked a few snags and had a great day. They were coached by our very own VFLW superstar Miss Currenti. St Pats finished in 3rd position. Well done to all players and thank you to Isabel for coaching the day.
