As this will be the last newsletter for the term, I want to wish all families a safe and restful holiday break. Even if you are not able to get away for a holiday, please take the time to rest and recover from what has been a winter full of sickness and sniffles. As the weather gets warmer, make the time to be outside, get some fresh air, go for a walk and recharge those batteries.

Please take time to look over this newsletter. So many images of so many wonderful memories. We truly are blessed to be part of such an amazing school.

As the term drawers to a close, I need to let everyone know we have had an overwhelming amount of enrolments for Prep in 2025, as well as many enrolments in our other grades. We continue to grow and welcome new families which is wonderful. You must all take credit for your part in this, as I know that you are and have been the voice for our wonderful school. There is no better way to advertise our school than ‘word of mouth’ in the community, so thank you for speaking so highly of our school. Whether it be informally at the shops, hairdresser, restaurant or cafe, or when formally asked for recommendations by prospective families, your positive talk about our school helps us all build belief within our community that we are a special school and that we can provide an excellent, well rounded education for all families that choose Columba.
