Principal's Corner

In the past week, we celebrated Catholic Education Week and joined in the celebrations across the diocese. Last Monday night, our recipients of the "Spirit of Catholic Education"  for Holy Spirit were presented their awards at a special Liturgy at the Sacred Heart Cathedral with Bishop Tim. We are so grateful for Gloria Sim, Gayle Kane, Linda Mayoh and Kate Smith for the work they do in our school community. These ladies got to celebrate with staff and families and they are a positive influence in our catholic community.

Campers

Good luck to our Year 5 campers this week and next as they make the trek to Paluma to the Townsville Catholic Education camp, Gumburu. Thank you to the many staff and parents giving of their time to provide this wonderful opportunity to learn outside the classroom and gain a better appreciation of God's creation. In Pope Francis' encyclical letter, Laudato Si, he calls us to action for humanity to care for our common home, Earth and to consider more sustainable ways to look after creation. These couple of weeks with our young people is a chance to remind them of our call from Pope Francis.

Interschool athletics

Finally, Good luck to our athletes competing in interschool athletics. You represent our school on the big stage and we thank you for your commitment to our school. Run fast, throw long and jump high.
