Last Monday, our year six Voice of Youth finalists, Matthew Y, Domenic G, Ana D and Zara A presented their speeches to Mr Crothers and Mrs Buenaventura for a place in the Blacktown Cluster final.
The speech topics ranged from deforestation issues, living in an ethnic family, dealing with trauma and the difficulties of self confidence. It was a difficult decision for the judges to make but in the end Ana won with her speech on self confidence.
A very big thank you to our judges Mr Crothers and Miss B and all the Year 6 students for their hard work in preparing their speeches. Ana now goes on to compete against 3 other students from within the Blacktown cluster.
Creative Arts
Stage 3 has been exploring ‘What techniques can bring non-alive objects to life’ in Creative Arts. We began by creating different types of puppets including chatterbox and sock puppets seeing how movement of our hands could show emotions and actions of a character.

On Tuesday the 11th of November we paused to pay respect and join together in prayer to remember the service and sacrifice of our veterans and people currently serving! It was beautiful to come together in our church to not only remember but pray for all those affected by war, including those experiencing war now. Thanks to all our students and staff who prepared for and participated in our liturgy. Thanks also to those parents, carers and friends who were also able to join us. ππΊππΊππΊππΊππΊ
