Celebrations of Learning

As part of their learning in Inquiry – Design and Technologies, the Year 1 students travelled to Collingwood Childrens’ farm yesterday.  Our students participated in a ‘paddock to plate’ learning experience and were able to apply the learning concepts and principles of their Design and Technologies Inquiry learning.  Congratulations Year 1s on a fantastic and exciting excursion.

“Faith in the future – I have come that they may have life and have it to the full."

Message from the Director – Maria Kirkwood

(Diocese of Sale Website https://www.ceosale.catholic.edu.au/media/catholic-education-week-2021)

This year’s theme for Catholic Education Week, “Faith in the future - I have come that they may have life and have it to the full,” is a combination of a quote from John’s Gospel and the theme for the bicentennial celebrations of Catholic education in Australia.

Catholic Education Week is an opportunity for all members of a school community to consider the call of the Gospel to build the Kingdom of God here and now.

More information on Catholic Education week, including our whole school Mass on Thursday 27 May, is in the Religious Education section of the newsletter.

Parish Mass – Saturday 22 May at 6.00 pm

Please join us this Saturday 22 May at 6.00 pm to celebrate Mass with our Parish schools.  We look forward to seeing everyone there to celebrate this special Parish occasion.

NAPLAN Online (Testing period Tuesday 11 May to Friday 21 May)

Congratulations to Year 3 and Year 5 students on successfully completing 2021 NAPLAN online testing over the past two weeks.  The National Assessment Program – Literacy and Numeracy (NAPLAN) assesses students’ literacy and numeracy skills.  The assessment provides parents and schools with an understanding of how individual students are preforming at the time of the tests.  NAPLAN is one aspect of a school’s assessment and reporting process – it does not replace ongoing assessments made by teachers about student performance.  Information regarding NAPLAN online was distributed to parents of Year 3 and Year 5 students last week. 

Road Works

From late May 2021, crews will begin installing flexible safety barriers on Narre Warren-Cranbourne Road and Narre Warren North Road, between Thompsons Road in Cranbourne and Fox Road in Narre Warren North, with works taking place Monday to Friday between 7am and 5pm, and on Saturdays from 9am to 3pm.  Works on this project are expected to be completed in 2021, weather permitting.  You can find out more on the project at https://www.vicroads.vic.gov.au/planning-and-projects/melbourne-road-projects/narre-warren-cranbourne-road-and-narre-warren-north-road-safety-improvements
