‘Love with all your heart, with all your understanding and strength and to love your neighbour as yourself’
Mark 12:28-34
Last Tuesday Monty, Seanna and Miley participated in a retreat experience called Exuro (Latin for “on fire”). They joined with Year 5 students from a number of schools in our diocese.
The Theme of the day was: Do not let anyone look down on you because you are young, but be an example for the believers in your speech, your conduct, your love, faith and purity. – 1 Timothy 4:12
Students engaged in a variety of creative activities related to the theme as well as joining in lots of fun and games. The day concluded with a liturgy which the students took part in organising.
Grandparents Day, Year 4 Science & Crazy Sock Day
Grandparents Day brought so much joy to St. Marys on Friday the 25th October. We thank all of the parents/carers, grandparents and St. Mary’s community for attending and sharing this wonderful celebration with us. After a whole school prayer service, choir performance and sharing of heartfelt messages to grandparents, all students invited grandparents into their classrooms to complete various activities. Students enjoyed looking at the world and technology through their eyes, playing games, sharing and learning from experience, reading, sketching portraits, interviewing and testing Mathematics skills. The festivities ended with an amazing picnic lunch and photobooth. Thank you to all the wonderful grandparents, parents, carers, family and friends who made this day so very special!
We all wore crazy socks on Thursday 31st October to raise money in support of the Don Bosco Caring Centre in Mongolia. This organisation reaches out to children to provide them with protection, education, health services and love. A very worthy cause that we are sock crazy for!

We are a Food Allergy Aware School. Your cooperation would be appreciated in talking with your children about the importance of not sharing food or putting any food items close to another child.
