21.01.2022 With some nerves and maybe excitement, our Year 12 cohort sat their AST on Tuesday and Wednesday. The Senior School teachers wrote encouraging messages on the concrete to keep their spirits up, and the café once again provided a free, healthy lunch to all the Year 12 students!

21.01.2022 Before the mid-year break, Junior School students in Years K-5 attended a Musica Viva In Schools Zoom concert with ‘Adam Hall and The Velvet Players’.

14.01.2022 Anglicare NSW South, NSW West & ACT asked for help - our students answered the call! They have been blown away with the generosity of our students and community. We collected and delivered approximately 30 shopping trolley loads of donations - an amount that they have not seen before on such short notice! The ELC, Junior School, Middle School and Senior School all thoughtfully contributed items for those in great need in Canberra. In spite of what this year has brought, the "greatest of these is love" 1 Corinthians 13:13.

04.01.2022 Every day we have a smiling face moving around the school cleaning the door handles, handrails, toilets, lockers and everywhere else we touch. To show our gratitude, the Middle School students have all written in a card. How did the teachers find out? The students were found passing this not so subtle card around in class.
