Dear Parents and Carers,

I hope that you enjoyed a brilliant Easter holiday break with your family and friends. Welcome back to the early beginnings of Term 2.

On ANZAC Day 25 April, 59 students (along with their parents and grandparents) and staff marched in the annual Corrimal RSL ANZAC Day Dawn Service.  It was an extremely special occasion for the Corrimal community particularly after the cancellation of the event due to COVID-19 last year. The amphitheatre at ANZAC Grove was full of people there to recognise and commemorate ANZAC Day on a fresh, clear and still morning - it was a fitting tribute to our ex-service men and women on this very special day. 

Our SCC choir, made-up of Year 5 and 6 students did an outstanding job in leading our National Anthem and Vice Captain Alyssa Fitzpatrick read the Solider's Prayer beautifully. Thank you for your support. 

            

On Sunday 9 May, we celebrate the gift of our mums through Mother's Day. This day honours our mothers and all of those women in our lives who nurture and unconditionally love us. Mother's Day, affirms the love and respect we have for our mothers,  grandmothers, aunties or sisters, as we show our gratitude for all that they have done for us and do, through acknowledging this special day together.

On Thursday 6 May 2021 at 9:30am in the Monsignor Downey Hall, we will celebrate Mother's Day with a Liturgy followed by morning tea.  Thank you to the P&F for their support on the day and for providing the morning tea.

The Mother's Day Stall will be held on Tuesday 4 May. Thank you to Caroline Ayres and her team for organising and operating another sensational stall, with a wonderful array of gifts - your time and effort is greatly appreciated.

Mrs Disibio and myself have begun the interview process for new and existing families for Kindergarten 2022. It is a significant time in the lives of families and we look forward to meeting prospective students and their families over the next 4 weeks.

Wishing you a safe, happy and successful next couple of weeks.

Take care 

Brad Colquhoun - Principal
