Over the last 2 weeks, Healthy Harold has been visiting classes as part of the Life Education program. Donna Walker has presented many healthy messages to our students ranging from eating habits, friendships and cyber safety. It is always pleasing to hear the conversations with students being positive around their visit and what messages they are getting from these presentations.

ANZAC Day is fast approaching and Holy Spirit Catholic School will continue the long tradition of marching in the Townsville March along the Strand. The RSL committee has advised schools that we are able to have up to 50 students marching to represent our school. This will be opened to our senior students in Year 6 first as many take this opportunity to be part of something with our community. A note will be sent home in the first week of the new term.

Great to see our Interschool Sport competition finally kick off last week after a 2 week delay due to weather. Our students love the opportunity to represent the school in the sporting arena and some even try a new sport. Thank you to the many staff involved, giving of their time to make sure these opportunities are provided. If you get a chance, say thanks. I know they will appreciate this.
