WHOLE SCHOOL MASS - We invite all families to join us for our next whole school Mass at 9am on Thursday 15 August, prepared by Year Two. The Feast of the Assumption is one of the most important feast days of the year and a Holy Day of Obligation on the official Roman Catholic Church calendar. The Feast of the Assumption is the principal feast of the Blessed Virgin, the mother of Jesus Christ. This holy day marks the occasion of the Virgin Mary's bodily ascent to heaven at the end of her life.


PAUL LITHERLAND - On Wednesday 21 August, our school will have the pleasure of hosting

Paul’s parent presentations will cover a wide range of topics and will last between 1 to 1.5 hours depending on questions.


Subjects covered may include:

– Cyber Bullying – Legislation surrounding this and how it is affecting our children.
– Digital Citizenship – Where our children are going online, the Apps they are using and the information they are sharing.

YEARBOOK - We are excited to be in the process of creating our 2024 St Peter’s Primary School Yearbook with 3P Photography. We will be following the same process as last year, where the
St Peter’s Primary School Yearbook has not been included in your family school fees, and you will need to order and pay online for a 2024 Yearbook.

Our Yearbook will be the same structure as the past, including our school photos, class pages, and a variety of photos and details from specialists and other school events held throughout the year.

All families are able to purchase a copy of their Yearbook from the link below. You are welcome to purchase multiple copies of the 2024 Yearbook you would like on for each of your children. Families will have until Friday 20th September 2024 to purchase a Yearbook.

Please note, that although you will need to order and pay for your Yearbook now, the Yearbook will be distributed to families towards the end of Term Four, to ensure that we can include as many events as possible in the Yearbook before it goes to print.

NAPLAN - Last week our students in Years Three and Five brought home their NAPAN results. In your child’s envelope you would have received their individual student report, as well as an information brochure for parents. These results have also been made available via SEQTA.

If you have any questions regarding NAPLAN or your child’s results, please contact the classroom teacher.

I would like to congratulate all our Year Three and Five students for their hard work and outstanding effort over the four NAPLAN assessments. They should all be very proud of their results!


MUSIC TEACHER - As mentioned in the Week One newsletter, Miss Sharni Cumming has taken over the Music position for Semester Two 2024 on a Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. I am pleased to announce that Miss Bella Garland has been appointed as the Music Teacher for the Monday and Tuesday. Thank you in advance for joining me in making both Sharni and Bella feel welcomed in the St Peter’s community.


BOOK FAIR AND BOOK WEEK - During Week 6, commencing Monday 19 August, we will be celebrating Book Week and hosting our Book Fair. The Book Fair will be held in the Library from Monday to Thursday 8:00-8:30am and 3:00-3:30pm. I would like to thank Mrs Sharon Zanotti for
co-ordinating this event.

The play, “Maybe a Miracle” is also coming to St Peter’s to perform for our Year One and Year Two students on Tuesday 6 August. The play is based on three books from Book Week called Timeless, The Concrete Garde, Every Night at Midnight.

Throughout this exciting week, our St Peter’s Dads has extended an invitation to all Dads and Father Figures to come into the classroom and read a book to the children and their child’s class. The purpose of this is to engage Fathers in the school community, as research shows that school that specifically target fathers will see better outcomes for students.

Author, Chenee Marrapodi has released a new book, “Breaking Pointe,” based around dance, and a very big part of the plot centres around Type 1 Diabetes. Chenee is scheduled to present to the
Year Four students on Tuesday 20 August. She is looking forward to reading to our students and getting them excited about reading and writing!

We will be holding our Book Week Dress-Up Parade on Wednesday 21 August at 8:50am.


HOLY COMMUNION - This weekend many of our Year Four students will be receiving the Sacrament of First Holy Communion. Please keep these students in your prayers. A lot of work goes on behind the senses to prepare our students to receive their Sacraments and I would like to acknowledge and thank those people for all the support they have provided to our students and their families.

CASEY HIGGINS - PRE PRIMARY BLUE - Casey, you are a star student who deserves to be recognised for your outstanding start to pre primary. I couldn’t think of a better way to describe you, but with an acrostic poem for your name.

C is for caring. Casey, you are always an excellent friend to everyone in our class. You are consistently finding ways to make sure that everyone is cared for. Whenever someone feels a bit sad or is not sure what to do, you are the first to help.

A is for amazing. Your sweet and considerate personality is an asset to our class. You always try to be your best, while encouraging others to do the same. You are an excellent role model for all our true values, both inside and outside the classroom.

S is for sincere. You are genuine in your all your ways, always staying true to yourself while respecting the choices of others. Your honest and nurturing nature makes you a trusted friend in the class.

E is for enthusiastic. You are an enthusiastic participant in our class. You willingly attempt all learning tasks with a positive, can-do attitude. You approach tasks with a growth mindset, rarely letting the worry of making a mistake get in the way of giving things a try.

Y is for your kind heart. Your kind heart reflects all that St Peter’s stands for. Your kindness is reflected in all your actions and words, making our class a better place. If anyone would put the needs of others before their own, it would be you.

Casey, thank you for helping make ppb an amazing place. Congratulations on being the junior person of the week!

DARCY NIELSON - FOUR MAROON - Congratulations to Darcy for being the Senior Person of the Week! Darcy, there are so many amazing qualities I can use to describe you. You inspire everyone around you each day with your hard work and determination. There is no task too difficult for you, as you put 100% effort into all challenges you face, achieving success and trying your best. Darcy, the kind actions you do for those around you don’t go unnoticed. Whether it’s including others in games or putting a smile on someone’s face, you can always be counted on to bring happiness and kindness wherever you go.
You embody the spirit of our school community by displaying the TRUE values in everything you do. Something that makes you so special is your enthusiasm and zest for life. This is evident in your bright smile, and the way you greet your peers and teachers so warmly each day. A quote from Mother Teresa reminds me of you; “Spread love everywhere you go. Let no one ever come to you without leaving happier.”

Darcy, you are a ray of sunshine and such a delight, I certainly leave happier after I’ve been in your presence. We are so proud to recognise you as our Senior Person of the Week and celebrate all the amazing things you are. Congratulations Darcy!
