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.

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.![668111002007048_1201016208716522-1]()

Year 5 have had a wonderful day at Scenic World! Students braved the cable car, skyway and railway – all with smiles and success. After a fun morning of adventure, we enjoyed a relaxed lunch in the park and are about to hop on the bus and head home. What a great camp experience it’s been. Please keep a look out for a Compass notification for our ETA for pick up.

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 — a perfect way to bring history to life!

With most of Year 5 at the Basketball Gala Day today, things looked a little different for students at school. The morning kicked off with an exciting Mathematics Treasure Hunt, where students worked as a team to solve challenging problems, unlocking clues that led them closer to the final problem. It was wonderful to see so much teamwork, problem-solving, and laughter as they raced around the school putting their math skills to the test. What a fun and creative way to start the day!
