This term, during our History lessons, Stage 3 have been learning about migration and its impact on the development of Australia as a nation.
As part of our inquiry process, students have been engaged in many learning opportunities that will help them answer our driving question - Who were the people that migrated to Australia and how did they contribute to the development of Australian society?
To help students answer our driving question, students have been learning about push and pull factors that contribute to a person’s decision to migrate. We also looked at the Australian government’s migration policies and how this contributed to changes in the Australian population.
As a culmination to our History unit, students have been busy exploring the individual narrative of a migrant or a refugee. Through interviews and research, students have gathered information about their chosen individual and will present their person’s migration story in class next week!

The Australian Catholic Bishops Conference (ACBC) has welcomed the election of Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost as the Pope, now to be known by the name Leo XIV. This represents a momentous event in the life of the Catholic Church, the wider community of Christian believers and, in many respects, the whole world.β Conference President, Archbishop Costelloe said Pope Francis had βreminded us that unity does not demand uniformity, but rather openness to the rich diversity of the many cultures and traditions which are part of our Christian heritageβ. Pope Leo XIV paid tribute to Pope Francis in his first remarks, which focused on peace. βPeace be with all of you,β he said. He urged the faithful to βmove forward, without fear, united, hand in hand with God and with each otherβ. Let us all pray for Pope Leo πππ»πππ»πππ»πππ»

Tomorrow or Stage 1 students will continue with their Kitchen Garden Program. Both Year 1 and Year 2 in small groups work out in Blueyβs Patch tending to the veggie garden and then get βcookingβ and prepare something using items they have gathered from the patch. Last term they made flavoured their water using herbs from the garden and other fruits. A great way to get kids interested and trying healthy food. What will they make this term??? ππΏππΏππΏππΏ

Last week we celebrated the beautiful ladies in our office who keep our school thriving and Dana who takes care of all our IT issues. These AMAZING ladies are simply the best as they are the back bone of the school, ensuring everything is ticking along just as it should.

On Friday we celebrated our ANZAC Day Liturgy a little differently due to the unpredictable weather. Year 3, 4 and KBlue gathered in the year 3 space and all the other classes gathered in their respective spaces. Our Stage 3 Mission Team led our liturgy with KBlue in charge of the Gospel procession and 3Gold sharing their reflections. Our students were both respectfully and prayerful. We will remember them. Lest we forget. ππΊππΊππΊππΊ
