Dear GSK Community,
Welcome to Week Seven!
Last week was another busy and exciting one for our school at the Catholic Schools Performing Arts Festival Congratulations to Year Five students Jolyn and Sebastian, who sang a duet in the Vocal section of the Festival. Their joyful rendition of Count on Me was wonderful, and they should both be very proud of their fabulous performance.
On Friday, the students in Years Three, Four, Five and Six all performed in the Choral section of the Festival and should be incredibly proud of their achievements. The adjudicator was very impressed with the fine performances of all our choirs, reflecting the hard work and dedication the students have put into their preparation. Thank you also to our families for ensuring the students looked so smart and presented themselves beautifully in their uniforms on the day. Your support is greatly appreciated.
The Creative Edge Team brought an exciting week to a close on Saturday morning at Curtin University. The students participated in both an impromptu challenge and a prepared presentation and should be very proud of their excellent efforts in both sections.

Dear GSK Community,
Welcome to Week Five! It is hard to believe that by the end of this week, we will already be halfway through the term!
We enjoyed another busy week last week, filled with a wonderful variety of activities and celebrations.On Monday, we celebrated NAIDOC Day. The celebrations began with a whole-school liturgy, where Adrian Tanner joined us to deliver a Welcome to Country and play the didgeridoo. This was a thoughtful and meaningful occasion and a very special way to begin our day.
After recess, the students participated in a series of three activities, including a Yarning Circle storytelling session, a First Nations dance experience and an art activity. During the art activity, students worked together to create panels depicting the six Noongar seasons. A big thank you to our Year Six students, who were wonderful assistants throughout the activities, supporting and encouraging our younger students. It was a very special day of learning, celebration and connection.
Congratulations to Jude, Seth and Samayah, who represented our school at the Speak Up Awards on Monday. We are very proud of the effort and confidence you demonstrated in sharing your speeches. A special congratulations to Seth, who has earned a place in the Finals of the competition. What a wonderful achievement – we wish you all the very best, Seth!

Our School Band performed at the Festival on Thursday evening. The students were outstanding ambassadors for our school and are to be congratulated on their excellent performance and wonderful success.The busy week drew to a close on Friday when we travelled to the church to celebrate the Feast of the Assumption with our parish community. It was a beautiful and reverent Mass and a lovely way to conclude such a full week.
Thank you to Mrs Clark and Miss C, who coordinated our annual Book Fair. The Fair was a great success, with many families taking the opportunity to browse and purchase books. The week came to a fun conclusion on Friday with the drawing of the Book Fair raffle.

Dear GSK Community,
Welcome to Week Four!
We enjoyed a very special morning last Friday when our school community gathered for a liturgy to celebrate the Feast of St Mary of the Cross MacKillop. Guided by Father Kenneth, the students shared some thoughtful insights and responded enthusiastically to his questions. It was a reverent and meaningful celebration as we reflected on the life and legacy of this important Australian Saint.
We also had an exciting week at the Catholic Schools Performing Arts Festival, with wonderful performances from our Year One and Year Two classes in the Choral Speech section and our Year Six class in the Percussion Ensemble section. Congratulations to all of our students on your outstanding efforts and performances. We are very proud of you!
Our Year Three class was treated to a delightful performance of The Little Mermaid, presented by the talented students of St Brigid’s College and Mazenod College. It was a wonderful morning of entertainment and a great opportunity for our students to experience some of the many opportunities that await them in secondary school.
The students enjoyed exploring the Book Fair last week, and families are warmly invited to visit the Fair this week. It will be open Monday to Wednesday, both before and after school, in the Sacred Space. We hope you have the opportunity to pop in and explore the wonderful selection of books on offer.
We wish Samayah, Jude and Seth all the very best as they prepare to represent our school at the annual Speak Up Awards on Monday. Good luck to you all as you share your wonderful speeches. We know you will represent GSK with pride!
Monday will also be a very special day as we celebrate NAIDOC Day at GSK. Students will participate in a NAIDOC Liturgy at 10.15am in Ward House, and families are warmly invited to join us. Between recess and lunch, students will take part in a range of activities that recognise and celebrate the rich diversity in the cultures of First Nations peoples. We are looking forward to a meaningful day of learning, reflection and celebration.
Another busy week at the Performing Arts Festival lies ahead! We wish our woodwind and brass students well as they perform on Tuesday, along with our school band, who will perform at Newman College on Thursday evening. It is certainly a busy and exciting week of performances, and we wish all of our musicians every success.
The week will draw to a close on Friday, when our classes travel by bus to Good Shepherd Church to join with the Good Shepherd Parish in celebrating the Feast of the Assumption. This will be another special opportunity for our students, staff and parish community to gather together in faith and celebration.
What a busy week ahead, filled with exciting and meaningful opportunities for our students!

Dear GSK Community, welcome to week 9.
We enjoyed a busy week at school last week!
This term, our school is proud to participate in the Archbishop’s annual LifeLink Day initiative. LifeLink Day connects Catholic school communities with local agencies that provide direct, practical care to Western Australians experiencing severe hardship, homelessness, domestic violence, and mental health challenges. On Wednesday, the Year Six Liturgy Team attended the Launch of LifeLink 2026. They were excellent ambassadors for our school and at the assembly next week, they will share an update about the plans for ways that our school can support LifeLink.
A fabulous afternoon was enjoyed by the Year Three class on Thursday afternoon. After weeks of students asking when they were finally going to make ice cream, the big day arrived! Using Waikikamukau Dairy milk, students mixed, measured, shook and froze their way to some very tasty results. There were plenty of sore arms by the end, but thankfully plenty of ice cream too.
The activity linked to learning they have been doing throughout the term. In English, students explored articles, infographics and procedural texts.They then used what they had learned to create their own infographic on Making Ice-Cream without Electricity.
In coordination with STEM learning, in Design and Technology they have been investigating the journey of milk from farm to fridge and exploring how food products are made. Making ice cream gave them a hands-on look at turning ingredients into a finished product and is helping prepare them for our next challenge: designing a healthy smoothie! A big thank you to the Year Three mums who helped out on the day. We hope you enjoy the photos of this fun activity!
On Friday last week, the Year Four class, along with a number of students from the Good Shepherd Parish, attended the First Communion Retreat Day. The children spent the morning at the church preparing for the Sacrament and then returned to school to participate in some First Communion themed activities. We hope you enjoy the photos from the day. Please keep the children in your prayers, as they receive the Sacrament of First Holy Communion tomorrow.
On Friday this week, the Year Three class will receive the Sacrament of First Reconciliation. The students will spend the day at school, participating in the Reconciliation Retreat Day with the children from the parish and then we will gather at the Good Shepherd Church at 4.00pm for the Sacrament.
We wish the Year Five and Six students well as they participate in the Winter Lightning Carnival this Friday. The students will spend the day playing in a round of football, soccer and netball games. Thank you to the parents who are generously giving of their time to support the teams.
We had a very special visitor come to school on Friday! Thank you to the Ricciardo Family for introducing Larry the Lamb to us! As you can see in the photo - Mrs Glorie was very happy sharing cuddles!!!
