FROM THE PRINCIPAL

Dear Parents and Carers,

At assembly this week we were able to present Sienna with her Under 11years Age Champion Swimming trophy. We thank Sienna for being patient awaiting her award. Sienna tied for this champion title with her friend and swimming rival Eva. I once again congratulate the full cohort of swimming age champions!

The Michael Rheinberger Award for Swimming was presented at the same assembly. The nominees this year were Arly, Charlie, Drew, Will H-S, Caitlyn, Nate, Will N and Levi D. The award was presented to Nate for demonstrating many of the attributes of Michael Rheinberger including passion for sport (swimming), persistence, courage, determination and sportsmanship. Congratulations Nate!

Learning at St Pat's

It was great to talk with some more of our students who have been recognised for demonstrating multiple attributes of St Pat's kids. We love acknowledging the great behaviours for learning and engagement under the three school pillars: Look Into Thinking; Look Ahead to the Future, and Look After Each Other. When students bring their learning journal we are able to further commend their great work with the pillar stickers. (Apologies to Matthew that you weren't photographed with your journal!)

Next week

Ian Luscombe will be at St Patrick's for two days next week, Tuesday and Wednesday. We look forward to Ian supporting us toward our aspiration of every student fully engaged in learning and general school life 100% of the time. Ian will walk alongside the leadership team and the teaching and support staff and through coaching support our learning. For new families to St Pat's, Ian is the founder of BehaveAbility with whom we have been working for 18months in support of positive behaviours for learning.

I will be in Bowral next week with the principals from our Archdiocese and our system leaders. This is an annual conference that has two purposes; Catholic Leaders' Day and the Principals' retreat. Mrs Sheahan will be leading the school in my absence.

Blessings on your weekend. Perhaps the rain will have abated and the flood levels dropped!
