Thanks to the students from Emmaus and St Columba’s for the opportunity to engage with their STEM Mad Initiative. Our Year 4 students loved exploring how science and technology can contribute to the common good and care for God’s creation.

Our Foundation students marked a special milestone - their first 100 days of school with the theme '100 Days Brighter'.

Over the past 100 days, our students have developed new friendships, built confidence, discovered a love of learning and achieved so many incredible milestones. From learning letters and sounds to reading, writing, counting and problem-solving, they have worked hard every day and should be incredibly proud of their achievements.
