🤍 SORRY DAY 🤍 Today the students of St Matthew's are learning how sometimes we say sorry not only when we have done wrong, but when we can see that someone has had a wrong done to them. Today is National Sorry Day, a day to acknowledge the strength of Stolen Generations Survivors and reflect on how we can all play a part in the healing process for our people and nation. We have recognised the day with healing hands placed in our Mary garden.

🏃♀️🏃🏾♂️. ATHLETICS CARNIVAL 2023 🏃♀️🏃🏾♂️ Wow! What a day we had today at the Athletics Carnival. After a frosty start, the weather and the action soon hot up and our St Matt's superstars were (as always) flying high as they ran, jumped and threw in their athletic events. Our students 8yrs and older were competing for one of the coveted zone team positions. Our younger students were learning the ropes and having lots of fun with their friends in all sorts of games and races. A big thank you to Mrs Brand, whose organisation of our big carnivals always ensures a successful day. We also couldn't have done it without our teachers, teacher's aids and wonderful parent helpers. Thank you!!

🚶♀️🚶🚶♂️ WALK SAFELY TO SCHOOL DAY 🚶♀️🚶🚶♂️ St Matt's will join children across Australia this week by participating in National Walk Safely to School Day on Friday 19 May 2023. We understand that for many of our families walking to school would be quite the hike! A great way to get your steps up on the day will be to park at Don't Worry Oval and walk across. Remember to cross at the crossing or hold a grown ups hand on the way. This year participants will receive a commemorative temporary tattoo at the gate.
