The Year 5 and 6 Girls Netball team demonstrated outstanding sportsmanship and teamwork in today’s netball competition. Playing with determination, fairness, and a positive attitude, they impressed both on and off the court. Their hard work paid off as they won every game, showcasing excellent skill, communication, and resilience throughout the day. We are incredibly proud of their efforts and are excited to announce that they have progressed to the next stage at the Interschool Conference 4. Congratulations to all the girls on this fantastic achievement!

Helping Hands- Vinnies Sandwich Making

Last Thursday parents gathered with our Family Educator Erin Gillard, donating their time and resources to make almost 100 sandwiches along with donations of fruit and snacks for the Vinnies Van to distribute in Liverpool that evening.

The demand for sandwiches and snacks distributed by Vinnies have significantly increased (by 30%) in recent weeks in our community. The cost of living crisis continues to make a massive impact across the South West of Sydney.

A very big thank you to those who gave to help outreach to those in need- be that financially, or donations of time and ingredients or prayers.

We would like to join us next time? Fill in the Helping Hands Google Form https://forms.gle/mKUVruRVUtrywEae8 and help those in need in our local community.
