This week, our Prep - Year 4 students joined communities across Australia to listen to Luna Roo the Kangaroo Baller as part of this year’s National Simultaneous Storytime,
an eagerly awaited reading event at St Paul’s.
We cheered Luna Roo on as she found
her inner strength in this energetic, action-packed picture book that celebrates teamwork, resilience, and sports.
Experiences like this truly create memories for our students & this nationwide initiative celebrates literacy, imagination and connection through the joy of shared reading. 📚

This week, our community came together to celebrate National Reconciliation Week.
Following in this year’s theme, ‘All In’, our students & staff did exactly that. All year levels spent meaningful time with our amazing Miss T—a proud Taungurung, Wurundjeri, and Yorta Yorta woman. 🍃
Together, we listened, learned,& connected through Aboriginal stories, culture, and history. From class discussions, creative activities to reflective prayer experiences, it has been a powerful week dedicated to learning more about Indigenous culture across our school. 🖤💛❤️

What a magical afternoon for our Year 4 students, who were treated to a special preview of Mercy College Coburg Vic
adaptation of The Little Mermaid. The music, storytelling, singing & dancing had them absolutely enchanted! We were especially proud to see former St Paul’s students shining on stage. Congratulations to the cast & all involved this weekend! ✨

A frosty start didn’t stop our amazing community from turning out for Walk Safely to School Day! 👟
This annual highlight is all about promoting healthy, safe, and sustainable habits for our children.
A huge shout-out to Victoria Police
Fawkner Highway Patrol team, whose visit made the morning extra special! ✨

Our Year 3/4 students have been diving deep into sustainability for their Inquiry unit. They have explored waste & learned about its impact on our environment. ♻️
To put their knowledge to work, they organised a pre-loved sale to show our school community the importance of reusing and recycling!
