Good morning parents, I can not believe that we have already reached the half way point of the year! The students have completed so many wonderful projects and events this term that they deserve some time to relax and chill.  Grandparents Day was a huge success, we had so many loving grandparents come in to celebrate this wonderful OLC tradition. The day started with a beautiful prayer service dedicated to our  grandparents. The slide show that Mrs. Meyer put together was absolutely stunning and I know that the students felt very proud to share these special people with everyone. The grandparents then enjoyed a delicious morning tea and came into the classroom to view some of the student's work before being delighted with the final presentation of the Go Fish musical. Please send a very heartfelt thank you to the grandparents who were able to make it! It was lovely to see the smiles and love shared amongst the students and their grandparents. Congratulations to Kade, Jye and Ga

They acted with great reverence and respect, participating so well in every part of the mass.  A tear did well in my eye when I saw the students reciting the prayers and completing the actions at the appropriate times. We thank you for the support and guidance you have given throughout the preparation of the sacrament. All of the students have taken home today their poster, banner, prayer card and cross as little mementos for you to keep and reflect on in time to come. Congratulations to Lucas, Taylah and Gabriel on receiving a Merit award at Friday's assembly, they are working hard to achieve their best .

I was so proud of them, as they did such an amazing job! Just to see the excitement and then the sense of achievement afterwards was priceless! Thank you to all of you for being so supportive with the make-up and costumes, it can not run so seamlessly without wonderful parents by our sides.
