The school recently purchased a range of books to support our learning in RE. Our wonderful Year 5 and 6 Leaders will be visiting classrooms each Wednesday afternoon to share some of these books.
Thank you to the Year 5 and 6 students who practised and read so beautifully. The students in Prep to Year 4 are already looking forward to Story Time next Wednesday!
May Month of Mary (The Rosary)
May the Month of Mary
“All generations shall call me blessed.”
(Luke 1:48)
Traditionally Catholics dedicate the month of May to Mary, the Mother of Jesus. The practice dates back at least 700 years. Our faith and tradition teaches us that Mary is a special sign of God’s love. Mary leads us to Jesus. We invite all parents to spend a moment of reflection in our beautiful grotto area outside Miss March’s room. You might like to spend some quiet time in informal prayer or pray a Hail Mary. There are also Rosary beads and books up near the grotto, which you are free to use.
The OLOL Cross Country Carnival will be next Thursday the 20th May. I am looking for some amazing parent volunteers to help with marshalling on the day. The carnival will start at 9:30am and should be all done by 11am. If you are available and willing to help could you please complete the form below.

HOLT (Inter-school) Cross Country Carnival - Friday 14th May
The Carnival is being held at Bald Hill Park in Clarinda starting at 12:30pm. Good luck to all students from grades 4-6! A massive thank you to all the amazing volunteers over the past few weeks who have helped with marshalling, breakfast duty and cheering the children on as they run past during our training sessions Friday mornings. These training sessions and carnival's would not be possible without your help and encouragement, so thank you!

Peaceful Kids is a wonderful program that promotes and supports the development of Mindfulness strategies in children to lessen anxiety and increase resilience. The program's founder, Georgina Manning, has recommended Lily Havakis to run the program at our school. We plan to begin the program in Term Three (if Lily receives enough expressions of interest to run the program), so please read the flyer below for more information and email Lily if you'd like your child to participate. Please note: there is a fee attached to the program.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact either of us.
