After an incredibly busy year the final week of school has arrived with only 2 school days left. Each one of us has many memories of our school year. We would like to acknowledge and give thanks to all members of our community for your contributions to our school in 2022.

ORIENTATION MORNING AND 2023 HOMEROOMS
As we do every year, our Orientation Morning will take place next Thursday, 8th December. Students will have the opportunity to move up to the next year level with their peers, working with their new  teacher in anticipation of 2023.

Many of you have heard the phrase ?It takesa whole village to raise a child??
This phrase is one we often refer to on the understanding that as a member of the Holy Spirit School community, we all play a part in supporting and encouraging others to be their best self. The students of Holy Spirit look to us, as the adults, to role model the behaviours they are expected to carry out.

DISPLAYING COURAGE? ..
To me, having courage used to mean overcoming extraordinary challenges, like climbing Mount Everest or running with the bulls. It never dawned on me that I demonstrate bravery every day, in fact, we all do. Even though we aren?t necessarily facing tough physical challenges like climbing a mountain, we deal with a variety of obstacles and a multitude of fears as a part of our daily lives.

Term 4 always brings with it a multitude of occasions and celebrations. Each one of these, without wishing our year away, comes on us very quickly. They include more Overnight Camps, Excursions, Swimming Carnival, School Performance, End of Year fun days, Orientation Days, Year 6 Celebrations and Final Assemblies. I?m almost exhausted thinking about them.
