Dear Parents and Carers
Archdiocesan Public Speaking Finals
Today Annie F, Isla B and Ellen H competed in the Archdiocesan Public Speaking competition. Congratulations again to the girls for the way they represented our school. It was commendable to see the girls taking on the feedback they were given last week from the adjudicators to work on presenting their speech without relying on palm cards. Isla B was announced winner of the Archdiocese for Year 4 and Annie F was runner up. What a fantastic achievement!

Sporting Achievements
Last weekend may have brought a lot of wet weather but that didn't stop two of our Year 6 students competing successfully in significant sporting events. Bonnie D travelled to Goulburn for the 2021 Brett Ogle Junior Masters Golf tournament and won her division. Lizzy B competed in the NSW State Surfing titles in Wollongong and made it through to the quarter finals, placing 13th in the State.
In addition, Nicholas W was selected for the Greater Southern Marlin's U13's representative Cricket team in the Greater Illawarra Cricket Zone.
Congratulations to these students!
I hope that you have a relaxing and enjoyable weekend.
