On Friday the 31st of October the St Joseph's community joined together in celebration of both Father's Day and Jersey Day.
Jersey Day is an annual day of awareness for organ donation which asks schools and workplaces throughout Australia to allow students and employees to wear their favourite sporting jersey in a show of support for the Donate Life network. Jersey Day was inspired by Nathan Gremmo who was tragically lost in May 2015. Nathan's family chose to give the gift of life to others through organ donation to honour Nathan's generous personality.
It was fantastic to see parents, students and staff in their favourite jersey to support this cause. With Father's Day around the corner, our dad's in the community enjoyed a bacon and egg sandwich and a photo in our photo frame.
We hope that all of the dad's in our community had a fantastic Father's Day and we thank you for supporting Jersey Day.

During the term our Year 5 students were busy bringing their creativity to life! As part of their writing, they learned how to write play scripts and then designed and crafted puppets to represent the characters in their stories. With excitement and teamwork, they rehearsed and performed their plays β and our Kindergarten students were the delighted audience! It was a wonderful way for our Year 5s to share their learning, storytelling, and imagination, while giving our Kindy students a taste of the magic of performance.![668111002007048_1218551926962950-1]()

Today our Year 5 students took part in their Formation Day as they begin their leadership journey. The day invited them to reflect on what it means to be a Christian Leader and how true leadership is not about power or recognition, but about service, kindness, and following the example of Jesus. Through prayer, reflection, and activities, the students explored how God is at the centre of every decision a leader makes and how being a leader means using the gifts of the Holy Spirit to guide their words and actions. This day is an important step in preparing them to be the Year 6 leaders of our community next year. We pray that they continue to grow in confidence and faith, always guided by the love of Christ and strengthened by the Holy Spirit.

On Thursday, St Joseph's was proud to support R U OK? Day. It is a National Day of action dedicated to reminding everyone that every day is the day to ask 'are you okay?' and support those around us. Both students and staff participated in this day and learnt how to offer support through the four step conversation framework- Ask, Listen, Encourage Action and Check In. A genuine conversation can sometimes have the greatest impact.

Year 5 had an incredible day stepping back in time! Students tried their hand at gold panning, cooked delicious damper, made mud bricks, and even built tents. They explored the museum, listened carefully to our knowledgeable guides, and discovered so much about life in the gold rush era. To top it off, they joined in some old-time games β a perfect way to bring history to life!
