Last Tuesday, 29 August, St Joseph’s School staff spent the day performing Christian Service about the community.  Staff were creative in finding different avenues in which they could help out such as donating blood, weeding, Share & Care, St Vinnies, roadside clean-up and at the St Joseph’s Parish. Well done everyone who took part in a very rewarding day and thank you to Mr Reidy for organising. 

I was very lucky to join Mrs Christian on the School stand at the Dowerin Field Days last week.  The sheer scale of this show was amazing, but you could certainly still feel the positive country vibes.  We had a lovely day together.

On Wednesday 30 August the Years 7 to 10 students had a Talk Money Incursion thanks to Ecstra Foundation.  It is designed to help Australian school students learn money lessons for life, to be confident talking about money and to make informed financial decisions.  The program is provided at no cost to schools, enabling more students to access financial education at key life stages.  Talk Money workshops are delivered by trained facilitators, providing an engaging and interactive learning experience. 

Father’s Day at our Primary Campus was a fantastic day.  It was lovely to see so many positive male role models in our students' lives.  Thank you to the Primary and Secondary staff who came in early to make the Father’s Day BBQ Breakfast a huge success. 

The Secondary Student Leaders organised RUOK? Week this week.  There were staff vs student competitions in the library, meditation and cupcakes.  It was a lovely week with a big thank you to the Student Leaders. 

God Bless
