This morning, we gat

This morning, we gathered for our Community Prayer Breakfast – a special opportunity for students, staff, parents and members of our broader School community to come together in prayer, reflection and connection.

Our CRU Captain, Asher Crosweller, opened the event with an Acknowledgment of Country. While everyone enjoyed their breakfast, Year 10 student, Hamish Anderson, sang Handel’s Where’er You Walk.

Guests then heard from the Head of School, Dr Julie McGonigle and Senior College Chaplain, Ms Julie McIntosh.

Chloe Waterhouse led prayers for students, Mr Justin Lathlean led prayers for School leadership and Mrs Pauline Su led prayers for staff and parents.

The Christian tradition has always understood prayer as an act of trust – not a means of bending God to our plans, but a means of aligning our hearts with His purposes. When we pray, we bring our anxieties, hopes, leadership responsibilities and uncertainties before God – and discover that peace grows where dependence is practised.

As we gather, we do so with expectancy – not because prayer makes life easy, but because it makes faith real.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for this meaningful morning of fellowship and prayer.

“Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God,” Philippians 4:6

100 days brighter, bolder and full of learning!

Today, our Kindergarten students celebrated 100 days of school with a day packed full of fun. Dressed as 100-year-olds, they embraced the milestone with plenty of laughs, enjoyed donuts, received awards and reflected on just how much they've learned since their very first day.

It's amazing to see how far they've come in just 100 days. Here's to many more exciting learning adventures ahead! ❤️

Year 6 students are

Year 6 students are designing solutions for a more sustainable future 🌱

Over the course of the term, our Year 6 students have taken on the Research Innovation Project — an independent, design-thinking challenge that encourages them to investigate a real-world issue within their local community and develop ideas that could help create positive change.

On Tuesday afternoon, students shared their projects at an exhibition attended by parents, staff and members of our School community. The showcase was a wonderful opportunity for our young innovators to present their research, explain their thinking and celebrate the journey behind their ideas.

Through this project, students have explored local environmental challenges while developing valuable skills in research, problem-solving, collaboration and communication.

“Students have engaged with real-life issues affecting their local area, using inquiry-based learning to investigate challenges, design thinking skills to innovate solutions and develop meaningful responses. Along the way, they have strengthened their ability to use geographical tools, including maps, graphs and photographs, to support their research and communicate their findings,” said Prue Sommer, Coordinator of Teaching and Learning and Project Lead.

Congratulations to our Year 6 students on their creativity, curiosity and commitment to making a difference in the world around them. 🌏

Celebrating our Junior School student leaders

Last week, we proudly recognised our new Junior School Student Representative Council (SRC) members at their Badging Ceremony.

The SRC provides students with the opportunity to share their ideas, represent their peers and help shape the Junior School community. We look forward to seeing the positive impact these young leaders will make throughout the year.

Congratulations to all of our SRC members, we can’t wait to see you lead with kindness, confidence and care.
