19.01.2022 Our Year 3/4 class have been learning about the First Fleet and the impact of colonisation on our First Peoples. They wrote, created costumes and props, and performed their stories today. Well done for some very entertaining and informative retells of history

19.01.2022 Holy Rosary kids did an amazing job today and like every year they put up a big fight against schools which are about 5x bigger than ours! Even when they knew they were being beaten these kids showed such amazing perserverance, resilience and sportsmanship, which is what Holy Rosary kids are all about! Despite the tough competition, Corbin in Year 3 received runner up champion boy and Lanton was overall Champion boy for Year 1, and broke a 7 year record from 2013 with his 50m time of 8.34 seconds!! Big thank you to Mr Kayde , Miss Teki and Miss Alis and well done to all our interschool champions for representing our school so well today

18.01.2022 Yesterday Cecily Arkell from Earth Science WA visited our school. Years 5 and 6 learnt about volcanos and their viscosity and the 2/3 and 3/4 class studied soil science. Some great learning took place judging from the engagement on our students’ faces! Thank you to Mr Kayde for organising this great incursion!
