Dear Parents and Carers,

On Sunday, we marked a significant milestone in our students' faith journey as we
celebrated the sacrament of Confirmation with Bishop Greg and Fr. Confidence. Our
candidates, Inara and Jikaya, were warmly welcomed by the St Mary's Parish and confirmed in the presence of their friends and family. We extend our heartfelt thanks to Sue and the staff for their dedicated preparation of Jikaya and Inara for this special occasion.

The Sixty-Third Yarram Eisteddfod, which commences on Monday, is a testament to our students' hard work and dedication. Our school is actively involved in the recitations, vocal groups, choir, and school play.

This week, we witnessed the students' commitment as they put the finishing touches on their items. We ask that children come prepared with warm coats for the walk to and from the theatre. In case of inclement weather, we have buses on standby. The staff have shared the running sheet on Class Dojo, and any updates will be communicated through this platform.
Our foundation students had a blast celebrating 100 days of school! The day was filled with fun activities and special projects, marking this important milestone with lots of joy and learning. We’re so proud of our students' accomplishments in their first 100 days.

The creativity was flowing on Crazy Hair Day! From wild wigs to colourful hairsprays, our students and staff went all out to showcase their unique styles. It was a fantastic day full of laughter and imaginative hairdos. We extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who participated and made the day so special. Your support and enthusiasm are truly appreciated!
As we look forward to the Winter Sports event tomorrow, we want to encourage all our students from Grades three to six to have a great time and give their best. Good luck to all the participants!
Maria
