Dear Parents and Friends of Holy Trinity,
Next week we will be celebrating Catholic Schools Week with all schools across NSW. We will be having a special day
on Friday 12th March starting with Mass @ 10:15am followed by fun Mathematics activities in each of the classes. We
will be having a sausage sizzle on this day for lunch and there will be no lunch orders other than sausages.
Sausages will be $2 each and will be purchased on the day with children putting in a lunch order bag requesting how
many sausages they would like. Parents and relatives are welcome to join us for any part of the day and can get a
sausage from the canteen at lunch time. Following on from our successful Staff vs Parents netball, softball and touch
football challenges over the past few years, we are hoping to have a T-ball challenge this year at lunch time. Any
parents who are interested in playing are welcome to show up on the day!
Stage 3 have found our new furniture very helpful in class. Gone are the days where you get in trouble for writing on
your desk! The new whiteboard tables come in very handy when working out Maths problems on their chromebooks and
are another example of contemporary learning at work.
Our School Athletics Carnival will take place on Friday 18th March at the Jubilee Athletics track. Students will bus
down in the morning from school. Infants children will return to school at approximately 1:00pm. The canteen will be
operational on the day and infants children will have an opportunity to purchase lunch before returning to school.
School Fees- Thank you to all those who have begun paying already. It is expected that all fees will be paid promptly.
Please see the office staff if you wish to find out options for payment or if you have not received your account yet.

KIDS SPEAK
We asked the children, “What is
the best thing about summer?”
Tadi Hove Stage 3 - You get to
go swimming and spend time
with family. It’s not cold, we
can go and play in the sun. We have cold things,
zooper doopers, sunny boys and ice cream.
Abbey Bradley Stage 3 - Going to the beach with
my cousins.
Tom Wichman GM - The best thing about summer is that you can
swim and that you can go outside and play with your friends.
Zita Hayes RB - The best thing about
summer is you get to swim.
Bailey Woods RN - Swimming
because the water’s normally cold
and it’s really hot.

Annaliese Lugton RS - The best thing about summer is we get
to go swimming and sit outside and have a barbeque. I also like that we get
to have ice blocks. I also like summer because we can go to the river and float
down on tubes Sometimes we just like to sit under the air conditioner.
