14.01.2022 YEAR 12 GRADUATION | Congratulations to the Class of 2020 you did it! Over the course of your schooling, you have had to confront many challenges and when that wasn’t stressful enough, in this your final year fate decided to throw a global pandemic at you. Through all of this you’ve learnt resilience and life skills that will help you succeed in life for whatever you have planned next. But most importantly, we pray that you pursue a life that is purposeful, where you will use your gifts to build others up because that is an important part of discovering who you are and who you are meant to be. We pray that God will bless you and go before you in all that you do!

What a blessing it is to be at a school where no matter how big you get, you are not forgotten!

07.01.2022 YEAR 6 VISIT TO SECONDARY | This week our Year 6 cohort came across to the Secondary school to have a taste of what high school is like.

06.01.2022 FINAL YEAR 12 SHILOH ASSEMBLY | Tuesday this week our Secondary campus held our last Shiloh Assembly with the Year 12s, only problem was we cant fit into Shiloh at the moment so our Student Leaders had to think outside the box. How about a live recording of an episode of the Good Word Podcast!? Now thats creative! Our Student Leaders led us through a program of performances, rap battles, prayer, trick shots, Meet the Teacher, and an awesome message reminding us of the deep love of God expressed through the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross. Thank you to everyone who made this last Shiloh possible!

05.01.2022 EXCITING FINISH | What a fantastic end to Term 2 on our Primary Campus. Students have been testing paper planes, building bridges and spaghetti towers, performing shadow puppet shows and learning new ball skills. Well done everyone on such a big Term 2. Now enjoy your holidays!

The staff and children cant wait to meet all of their new furry friends!
