Family Market Night planning is in full swing and we
are looking forward to a fun filled event on Friday,
14th October at 5:30 to 8:30pm. The evening caters for
everyone, from performances by the College Choir, a
petting zoo, Sumo wrestling, sporting activities, face
painting and a jumping castle to name but a few, as
well as a huge variety of stalls to warm any shopper’s
heart.
The Family Market Night could just be the ideal place
to come do some early Christmas shopping in a festive
family friendly environment. This will be a fantastic
opportunity for the community to come together
whilst supporting their local school. We hope to see
you all there!
We had a very successful 'Dad’s & Mentor's Date Night'
on Thursday, 28th July. Mr Kevin Manning from Casey
City Church and Mr Andrew Austin of 'Dad’s Matter'
at the City of Casey organised the event. The Dads,
Stepdads, Uncles, Grandpas or male mentors were
invited to come with the children for an awesome
evening of games, prizes, 'snags', fun, laughs and a
special message for Astronauts in training. As husbands
and fathers Kevin and Andrew are keen to share and
show their love of family to other men in effective and
practical ways.
The children enjoyed buying gifts for their Dads, Pops
and Uncles at the annual Father’s Day stalls. It is always
a delight to see the children’s faces when they are
deciding about what gift would be the best to buy.
A group of parents meet weekly at the College to pray
for the College and the wellbeing of its staff, students
and families. The Prayer Group meet on Tuesday
mornings at 9:15 - 10:00 am in the Administration staff
room. Prayer undergirds all that we do and we are so
appreciative that parents are supporting the school in
this vital manner. We want to warmly invite anyone
who is interested in joining. All are welcome.
