St John's Dads, Step-dads, Grandfathers, Uncles and visitors came together this afternoon to celebrate Father's Day with a reverent and meaningful liturgy followed by a delicious afternoon tea.
It was wonderful to see so many members of the St John's community come together, enjoying great company and good food.
Thank you to the hard working mums who helped set-up the afternoon tea and run the Father's Day Stall. A special thank you to Mrs Janelle Bawden and the fantastic teaching staff at St John's for your dedication to our wonderful students who participated in a beautiful liturgy, giving thanks for all the important men in our lives.

Year 1 enjoyed a visit from Father Zak this week as a culmination to our Religion unit on 'Prayer'. 🙏 He spoke to the students about how prayer nourishes the soul and reminded us that Jesus is present in us all. The children loved listening to his stories and asked him LOTS of questions! Father Zak then shared a decade of The Rosary with the students. We are so grateful to share our learning with Father Zak. ✝️🤍![746041150857862_1277242761071029-1]()

Year 4 are having so much fun procedural writing this term! They have been sharing family recipes and reading lots of different types of procedural texts. ❤️ Today, they joined together to follow a recipe and bake a cake! 🎂 Making changes as they needed when they felt the instructions were not specific enough. What a fun lesson! 🤩

What a great night for Stage 3- lots of reflecting on all we have to be grateful for in our lives. 🥰 Thank you to those who helped organise the Vinnies Winter Sleep out- and to Helena from St Vincent De Paul who came to speak to our children about the wonderful work they do, and how we can help those in need. It was so nice to see our students really embrace the night, and write thoughtful hope cards for those who need a pick me up! 🙏
