St Elizabeth's News

I was fortunate to take some family leave earlier this week, and I’d like to extend my gratitude to Mr Mastan and the team for their exceptional leadership in my absence.

A huge congratulations to Miss Newton for organising a fantastic Interhouse Swimming Carnival last Friday. It was wonderful to see our Year Four to Six students embracing the spirit of competition with enthusiasm, sportsmanship, and a ‘have-a-go’ attitude. I was incredibly proud of each and every one of them. Congratulations to our Champion and Runner-up boys and girls in each year level, to Vincent for winning the overall carnival, and to MacKillop for earning the Sportsmanship trophy. A heartfelt thank you to our dedicated staff, who always go the extra mile to ensure these events are a success, and to our parents and extended families, whether helping on the day or cheering from the stands. Next week, selected students will represent our school at the Interschool Swimming Carnival at HBF Stadium, Mt Claremont, and we wish them the best of luck!

A friendly reminder to parents, please only post photos or videos of your own child on social media. Sharing images of other children without parental consent is not permitted.

As we approach the final two weeks of term, things are getting busy! Please stay updated by checking Seesaw and the newsletter for any important information or changes.

Wishing you all a wonderful weekend!

God bless
