Good afternoon parents and caregivers,

It’s hard to believe that we are already approaching the end of Term Three, with just one week remaining!

Our Community Open Night on Wednesday was a wonderful success. It was heartwarming to see so many families come together to celebrate the learning and achievements of our students. The classrooms were filled with energy, creativity and pride, and I sincerely thank our dedicated staff for the time and effort they invested in creating such engaging learning environments. A particular highlight of the evening was our Art Gallery, inspired by the life of St Francis of Assisi. The display was truly breathtaking, with students’ artwork beautifully reflecting the message of Laudato Si’ and the importance of caring for God’s creation. Thank you to Mrs Curtis for coordinating such an inspiring and meaningful exhibition.

Our 2026 Book Fair was also a tremendous success. A special thank you to Mrs Burgess, Mrs Dimond and Mrs Irwin for their hard work in organising this much-loved event. The Book Fair continues to be a wonderful opportunity to foster a love of reading and encourage our students to explore the joy of books.

Best wishes to our Year One to Year Six students as they compete in the School Athletics Carnival next Thursday at Mater Dei. We look forward to seeing our students demonstrate outstanding sportsmanship, determination and house spirit throughout the day. The P&F will once again be running their popular Cake Stall and Sausage Sizzle. Please remember to pre-order sausage sizzle lunches to ensure your children do not miss out.

A reminder that Term Three will conclude for all students on Thursday, 24 September, with a Staff Professional Development Day taking place on Friday, 25 September. We look forward to welcoming students back for the commencement of Term Four on Monday, 13 October.

Wishing you a wonderful weekend!

God bless

Dear Families and Caregivers,

It has been another busy and exciting week at St Elizabeth’s as we quickly approach the end of term.

Today, our Year 5 students are visiting Parliament House, where they will have the opportunity to learn more about our system of government and see democracy in action. We hope they have an enjoyable and informative day. A reminder to Year 5 families that our camp information meeting will be held tonight. We look forward to sharing important details about the camp and answering any questions families may have.

Tomorrow will be the final AusBike session for our Year 3, 4 and 5 students. The program has been a wonderful success, with students developing their cycling skills, confidence and road-safety awareness. Thank you to AusBike and everyone who has supported these valuable sessions.

Our Book Fair will also conclude tomorrow. If you would still like to purchase a book or another item, please ensure you visit before it closes.

Finally, the Sacrament of Reconciliation Commitment Masses will be held this weekend. Families involved are reminded to check their allocated Mass time and arrive promptly.

Have a wonderful end to the week!

God Bless

Kadir Mastan and Brooke Davison

The active-travel momentum will continue tomorrow, when our Year 3, 4 and 5 students participate in the first of four bike-education sessions.

Please ensure you read your SeeSaw messages regarding collection of bikes.

It is a fun reading event that brings the books kids want to read right into our school. It is a wonderful section of engaging and affordable books for every reading level.

The students will get to participate in a colouring in competition at school if they wish. The winners of every year group will receive a $25.00 voucher to spend at our book fair.

A book flyer will be sent home so that if you are unable to attend our book fair with your child you can still purchase a book/s online. Your child may have filled out a wish list at school, which could help you to make your choice/s.

Donated book/s are very welcome, a donation slip with your family name with be glued into these books!

All purchases will benefit our school resources 😀

Thank you
