We came together today to celebrate and give thanks to our fathers, grandfathers, uncles and all special people in our lives who give us care, protection, love and direction.
Symbols of our Dads were placed around the altar.
Cricket bat and ball as a symbol of the time you spend with us , playing with us, teaching us how to play fairly, just being with us and showing you care.
Newspaper: a symbol of the time we give you to have some quiet time before you share with us again.
Socks: keep your feet warm and protect them just like your hugs keep us warm and protect us.
Story Books to remind us of the stories you tell us, and also the stories we tell you. We share the good stories and the not so good stories with each other.
The Bible reminds us of the fathers in the bible especially St Joseph who looked after Jesus telling him stories, teaching him and preparing him for his journey of life.
Our school candle Just as we are the light of the world, may our Dads always be people of hope and light
Thank you to the P & F and all the helpers for a great breakfast to start off the celebration.
To all our Father figures we wish you a Happy Father's Day.

π Celebrating Our Lady of Mount Carmel Feast Day & Grandparents Day π What a wonderful day of faith, family and community! Last Friday, we gathered to celebrate the Feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel while honouring our grandparents and the special people who nurture, guide and love us each day. Our students led a beautiful Mass with reverence and joy before families came together to share a picnic across our school grounds. It was heartwarming to see generations celebrating together, reminding us that our school is truly a community where everyone belongs. A heartfelt thank you to our parish, staff, students, families and grandparents for making the day such a memorable celebration. Our Lady of Mount Carmel, pray for us. π Saints Anne and Joachim, pray for us. π

What's It Really Like to Send Your Kid to a Catholic School?
If you've ever assumed that attending a Catholic school means you have to be Catholic and that the fees are expensive, you're not alone. It's a common perception, but for many families, the reality looks quite different.

This week Year 3 had two special visitors β Rufus and Ola, two playful desert dingo pups. The children have been reading the book Wandi and this visit brought their learning to life. Students loved meeting Rufus and Ola and learning more about dingo conservation and care. The pups were full of energy and quickly won everyone over with their friendly nature, playful personalities, and plenty of enthusiastic licks! The children enjoyed interacting with the dingoes up close and were fascinated to see firsthand the unique features and behaviours they had been learning about in class. This memorable experience provided a wonderful opportunity for students to deepen their understanding of Australia's native animals while creating some very special memories with our dingo cubs along the way.
