St Brigid's Nerang

Congratulations to Our 2026 Year 6 Students!

This morning, we proudly celebrated our Year 6 Leadership Presentation, where our student leaders were officially presented with their St Brigid’s Leadership Badges.
Receiving a leadership badge is a special milestone and recognises each student's commitment to living out our school values through service, responsibility, respect, and leadership within our community.
We congratulate all of our Year 6 leaders and thank them for the positive example they set for our younger students each day.
Well done, Year 6 Leaders! We are incredibly proud of you all. 👏✨

Get ready to groove with Lyla Hall, our talented bassist and vocal powerhouse! With a deep passion for music and a love for the iconic band Weezer, Lyla brings an energetic vibe and unique sound to our ensemble. Her dynamic bass lines are sure to keep you on your feet, while her heartfelt vocals add a special touch to every performance.

When she’s not rocking out on stage, you can find her cuddling with her beloved cats, who inspire her creativity and keep her grounded. As a proud member of the St. Brigid’s community, Lyla loves embracing the spirit of our school and sharing her passion for music with her fellow students.
Join us in celebrating Lyla and the amazing contributions she makes to our band!

🎉 Woohoo – only 4 more sleeps until the disco! 🕺💃

Don’t forget to grab your student’s disco ticket on Qkr before it closes Wednesday at 3pm ⏰ — you won’t want them to miss out!
🙋‍♀️ We’re also still in need of volunteers to help make the night a success. If you’re able to lend a hand, we’d love your support!
Let the countdown begin… it’s going to be a fantastic night! ✨

🌿🐾 EcoMarines in Action! 🐾🌿

Our EcoMarine students enjoyed a fantastic day at Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary with Mrs Anderson and Mrs Kurtz!

Through hands-on learning, they explored how our everyday choices, especially how we manage waste, impact wildlife and ecosystems. EcoMarines empowers students to become environmental leaders, inspiring them to take action and care for our planet.

We are so proud of our students for stepping up as environmental change makers!💚🌏

We are excited to share that our St Brigid’s Contemporary Music Program, led by Michael (Ginny’s Guitar Lab), will be continuing into Term 3—and it’s not too late for your child to get involved!
