If you have an Instagram account you can follow him to see what he has been up to during his visits.

We are in the process of typing the final copy of how early explorers navigated their ships explanations. The students will have the freedom to choose what they want to write about. They will need to write about how something works, how something is made or how something occurs.

We will be viewing our ‘bear adaptations stop motion videos’ on Thursday afternoon. We have begun our next unit of work, 'States of Matter'.


Until next time, choose kind…

Leadership Teams 2024 Please take the time to go through the different roles below and have a discussion with your child about what would be a great fit for them.  We will begin to create a one page CV tomorrow. This will include some background information such as their name, birthday, faction, years at OLC, special achievements / milestones (First Holy Communion) as well as their 3 top preferences. With each preference, your child might like to write a sentence as to why they are interested or would be a great fit to that particular team. Please note that next year there will be a mid-year swap of teams so that each child will be apart of two teams over the year. Your child may also like to have an appropriate photo of themselves to insert into the CV to jazz it up.     Team: Spirit Spies and Wellbeing   Staff: Mrs. Meyer, Mrs Delane & Fr. Archie (where applicable)   Student Team Members :      Duty Statement:     Members of the Spirit Spies Team are responsib
