25.01.2022 Congratulations to the Junior School students who participated in various Art competitions this term. Artists made good use of their time at home to practise their creativity which resulted in these outstanding pieces. Well done students, what an inspiration.

23.01.2022 There continues to be many firsts in our school life this year. Recently our Junior School sites held a virtual lunchtime concert. This is usually a very exciting occasion that occurs in the music room. This year there was a new excitement in the air as it was all done online, allowing the most family participation ever.

21.01.2022 Helpful reminder as we start a new week Gently encourage& reach out for the exhausted, pulling them to their feet. Be patient with each person, attentive to their individual needs. And be careful that when you get on each others nerves you dont snap at each other. Look for the best in each other, and always do your best to bring it out. 1 Thess 5:13 MSG... Thanks for this encouragement Yolanda Charalambous

The presentation took place in front of Middle and Senior school students as well as families and friends. Our student leaders pledged their commitment to serving God and our school community whilst their parents handed them their badge and tie. Congratulations to all the School Leaders and Captains for 2021.

17.01.2022 Remote learning for our ELC 3 year olds

17.01.2022 In this Year 7 Drama activity, students learned about the theatre spaces and performances of the Ancient Greeks. Their final project involved creating or drawing their own amphitheatre model. Some students used Lego, others used cardboard and even created their own bricks and mortar. Their teacher was very impressed with what they came up with given the limited resources available to them in lock down.

15.01.2022 No screen day (treat) at Officer onsite learning.

15.01.2022 Yesterday was a screen free day across all sites. Our at school group achieved this by enjoying a game of hopping rock paper scissors, vertical connect four and finished off with a game of hula hut. Each team had a teacher play with them. Talk about adding come competitiveness to everything!

14.01.2022 Our staff care packs have started arriving home. Were so grateful for all our staff and teachers that have been truly stretched during this season.

11.01.2022 Our Deputy Principal (Junior) Mrs Jenny Rus is lending a helping hand to Connect Community Care - Frankston who have extended their feeding program to vulnerable local residents during this extraordinary time of demand. Were so grateful for the servant leadership style at Maranatha Christian School. Thank you Jenny Rus and the entire leadership team for all you do in leading us through this unique time.

11.01.2022 Congratulations to our August Artists of the month. Grace Hitch, Year 4 with her Adelle artwork inspired by artist Gustav Klimt and Audrey Nicoli, Year 2 with her mini monster and mini monster gallery. Amazing creativity at home for these pieces.

10.01.2022 Some of our Junior School students received a special encouragement from our Sports Teacher, Mrs Inman. It was an ISO journal for them to record their thoughts and attitudes but importantly to be encouraged during this unique season. Today is R U OK day, it seems it is a timely reminder to all of us to check in on someone we care about and encourage them as well. The bible tells us to Be strong and courageous... for it is the Lord your God who goes with you. He will not leave you or forsake you. Deuteronomy 31:6. Take a moment to remember this truth and then pass it on to someone who needs it. Have a great day and be sure to enjoy some of this sunshine

10.01.2022 Our ELC are learning about all the amazing people who work to support our local communities like the police force. Pre preps dressed up as police officers and learnt about traffic lights and road signs. To top it off, they made traffic light biscuits and enjoyed them for afternoon tea!

09.01.2022 Our Year 1 and 2 students have been having a great time doing Science experiments in our Inquiry unit: Material Production. They have made Crystals, Oobleck (Slime), Jelly and loads more.

07.01.2022 More from our 100 days of Prep celebrations

06.01.2022 Our Year 5 and 6 students have been working on creating a visual representation of our Solar System, making them as close to scale as possible. They also delivered an oral (virtual) presentation to their class, taking them for a trip into space, where they visited each of the eight planets. Some students made their models out of recycled wood, others made 3D posters and some even made a solar system cake! Needlessly to say, all of the projects were out of this world and a great reminder that God is an indescribably awesome creator.

06.01.2022 Our Deputy Principal (Junior) is out on the road today dropping off essential Prep learning packs. Keep an eye out for her!

04.01.2022 Our Year 2s have enjoyed a creative Maths lesson.

04.01.2022 A small pick-me-up pack went out to all Secondary students this week. Middle and Senior School Pastoral Leaders wanted to pop in and say We miss you!, hang in there, take a break when you need to and remember how far youve all come. We are proud of each and every one of you. Youve STILL got this!
