Child Safety

Child Safety is important to our school community.  Ensuring all our students feel safe and know what to do and where to go to seek help if they feel unsafe were important messages in this week’s Child Safety activities.  Thank you to all students and staff for participating in our Day for Daniel by wearing red and donating a gold coin to a very worthy cause.  A very big THANK YOU to Lize Privitera for her tireless efforts to ensure Child Safety messages and actions are communicated often within our school community.  Our Year 6 student leaders shared their Student friendly version of our Child Safety policy in all classrooms and highlighted key messages to students on how to stay safe.  Photos of our Day for Daniel are included below.

Remembrance Day

Today our school community stopped to honour the sacrifice of others in our Remembrance Day Service.  Our Year 6 student leaders led us in a meaningful and respectful prayer service before honouring the sacrifice of others in a minute silence.  Thank you to Lize Privitera, our Senior Students for their organisation and planning of a beautiful and reflective service. 

Thank you to families who have left messages on a poppy in our display in the Welcome Garden.  Each poppy is unique and creates a space that provides an opportunity to reflect on and remember those we hold dear in our hearts in this month of remembrance.  The poppies help to provide a focus on what really matters - our family, the gift of our loved ones and those people in our lives that help to make our world a better place.

Lest we forget . . .

Welcome to our 2022 Foundation Students

Last night we held our 2022 Foundation Information night for parents via Google Meet.  Our Foundation Teachers Sally Lane and Claire Giles went through a typical day in the life of a Foundation student.  This was also an opportunity to warmly welcome our new families to Mary MacKillop and to step through the Transition activities, dates and times on offer throughout Term 4.  We are very much looking forward to meeting all students and their families in person at our first on-site Orientation Session this Friday from 9.00 am to 10.30 am.
