25.01.2022 Year Six Christian Living Camp Year Six attended a three day camp to Lake Burrendong this week. We had a wonderful time together with students from Coolah, Dunedoo and Gulgong. We kayaked, built rafts, shot arrows, slid down a massive slip and slide, solved problems and had a mountain of fun! We contemplated what gifts the sacrament of Confirmation would bring to our lives and the importance of witnessing our faith to others by our kind actions. The students of Assumption School made us proud by their respectful and inclusive behaviour throughout the entire experience. They showed everyone they met why they are excellent ambassadors for our school. Alison Hanley & Caz Barrett l Year 6 teachers

23.01.2022 St Mary of the Cross MacKillop "Never see a need without doing something about it" is the motto of Australia's first saint, Mary MacKillop, whose feast day we celebrate today. The students of the Assumption School are blessed that Mary MacKillop is their inspiration. Thank you Junior Joey's for helping us reflect on the life of St Mary of the Cross MacKillop.

21.01.2022 Year Six Fun Day And what a day of fun it was!! Our day started at The Greens on William for bowls and then a hit of golf at the driving range. We were smashing the jacks and our drives were incredible with an occasional slice. Lunch was at the Adventure Playground and then we headed off to the Aquatic Centre for a quick dip and a hot chip. Everyone's behaviour was exemplary and our school is proud to call these Year Six students our leaders. Many thanks to Mr Maher for supporting us on this wonderful fun day! Caz Barrett and Alison Hanley l Year 6 teachers
