Movie Night was an excellent evening of community, good food and family fun. I always look forward to Movie Night as it is a delight to see the children enjoy our beautiful College grounds in the evening (how novel!) with their family and friends. It was a great night of entertainment. For those who came along I hope you had a marvellous evening and enjoyed the atmosphere!
I’d like to highlight some key dates and events in preparation for the start of Term 2.
- 29 April (Tuesday) | First day back for students
- 2 May | K-2 Assembly
- 6-7 May | Creative Arts Night for Stage 1
- 7-8 May | Mothers’ Day Stalls
- 9 May | Mothers’ Day Breakfast
- 9 May | Year 3-6 Assembly
- 12 May | Junior School Athletics Carnival (Year 3-6)
This week we have our Easter Hat Parade and Eggshibition which I absolutely love attending each year. I am waiting with great anticipation to see your children’s designs later this week. I also encourage families to use recycled materials as much as possible to role model sustainable practices.
At Easter time, we consider and reflect on Jesus and His death and resurrection. What great news it is that Jesus is the Christ, that is, God’s chosen King. Jesus came to die to pay the price for our sin. He rose from the dead just as He said he would so He could bring forgiveness of sin and renewed life to those who follow Him. Jesus brings us into God’s eternal family and kingdom. He graciously extends this generous gift to all. What good news this truly is.
'…we have an advocate with the Father—Jesus Christ the Righteous One. 2 He Himself is the propitiation for our sins, and not only for ours, but also for those of the whole world.'
1 John 2-3
As Term 1 comes to an end I do hope you find opportunities to rest, recharge, and enjoy quality time together as a family over the break. I look forward to welcoming the students back next term with fresh energy and enthusiasm for learning.
