Today, a selected group of Year 9 students had the privilege of attending the Divine Liturgy for the annual Feast Day of Axion Estin, the Archdiocesan Church of the Diocese of Chora. We also commemorated the Feast Day of Saints Bartholomew and Barnabas, making this a particularly special occasion as we celebrated the Name Day of His All-Holiness Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew I, who has faithfully served as the spiritual leader of the Eastern Orthodox Church since 1991. We offer our heartfelt prayers that God, through the intercessions of his Patron Saint, will continue to bless His All-Holiness with good health, wisdom, and spiritual strength, so that he may continue to guide and inspire our Church for many years to come.

We are incredibly proud of one of our own, Chloe Drakopoulos, who had an outstanding weekend at the Victorian Gymnastics Championships — taking home multiple ribbons in a brilliant performance!
Chloe's achievement is a testament to her hard work, dedication, and the wonderful support of her family and coaches. The whole SJC community is cheering you on — well done, Chloe! 🎉

National Simultaneous Story Time:
Today our youngest readers at St John’s enjoyed a national reading event.
Foundation students were part of the National Simultaneous Story Time event; They read “Luna Roo” an Australian storybook that shares an experience about trying your very best and working in a team.
Schools, libraries & Early Learning Centres around Australia joined in this interactive event, with students cheering for Luna when she scored a goal!
This is one example of just how books and stories can bring people together; we hope you can share in your home too.
