Can you remember Tuesday 13 July, the first day of Term Three?
Reflecting back, you may think, that was a challenge. Let's look at the term through the eyes of the students, lets look at the significant LEARNING, SPIRITUAL AND SOCIAL EXPEREINCES our students have had. Notice the words in red, thats how our students learn.
We met Mrs Jones because Mrs Davis enjoyed some extra holiday time.
We played Widajri games.
We made Widjari food.
We raised money for people who are cold.
We found out Mrs Perryman is our real Principal, for a long time.
We wrote with famous authors.
We planted trees for our environment.
We listened to student's speeches.
We welcomed Mr Niddrie back to school.
We celebrated Mary's assumption to heaven.
We heard great stories, including the books celebrated for Book Week.
We made gifts, dressed up and sang a song for our special Father figures.
We experienced the Chicken Dance virtually.
We shared our learning in many different ways.
We found Mrs Cooper, yep, she was lost and we found her.
We watched the staff dance and our families danced even better.
We welcomed one another back to school.
We took part in the Squiz Kids Pilot Program.
Although there have been challenges, the learning has continued and I am grateful to our community. To our parents and carers for their commitment to the unfamiliar waters of home schooling, thank you, to our students for their encouragement and help of one another, thankyou, to our staff for their enthusiasm towards making online learning engaging, thankyou, to the many members of our community who have prayed for us, thankyou.

Mark sourced some wood burners for their property and consequently we have benefitied, thank you Mark. The wood burners have been on sale at school as well as the businesses listed below. A very big thankyou to these businesses and to Wendy and Mark Sumich for co-ordinatong the fundraiser.

What do you need to know about Term Four?
At this stage Term Four will begin on WEDNESDAY 6 OCTOBER. Monday 4 October is a public holiday and Tuesday 5 October is a Pupil Free Day.
At this stage the school will be open on Wednesday 6 October, I am unable to predict what the NSW Government regualtions will be in two weeks. With this in mind, any communication to parents will be through School Zine. Thankyou for the uptake of the information that is going out on School Zine. I encourage you to continue sourcing this as your point of truth regarding communication from Trinity.
All students need to wear their Summer uniform from the beginning of Term Four.
Thank you for your commitment to Team Trinity, please do not hesitate to contact me via email at caz.perryman@cg.catholic.edu.au for any matter that you wish to discuss.
My door is always open for you.

Thank You
As we take a short break from our day-to-day school life for the upcoming holidays, I would like to take an opportunity to thank the many students, teachers, families, and friends of the community who have made this term such a wonderfully productive and successful term, particularly during the added challenge of Home Learning. Thanks to all the people who have supported Trinity in any way through action, words, deeds, or presence. I am truly grateful we are part of such a supportive and vibrant school community. I look forward to working with everybody again next term and wish all families and friends a happy and safe holiday with many laughs, smiles and good times.
Happy Holidays
After such a busy and unusual Term 3, I hope that you all have a relaxing, restful and safe holiday break with family and friends. Make good use of times to be together, look after each other and engage in family get togethers where permissible. Thank you for your understanding and support this term, particularly in the light of the current environment.
Prayer for the Holidays
We thank you, Lord, for this term.
For the challenges, the successes, and the mistakes from which we have learnt.
Be with us as we spend our time with family and friends.
Give us strength and courage to do what is right: to be witnesses of our faith.
Help us to be practical people these holidays, to appreciate what others do for us, to give time and effort to help others.
To be peacemakers in our family.
Keep us safe in our activities; give us good rest and good fun.
Bring us back refreshed and ready for a new term.
We thank you for our classmates, teachers, parents
And a community that cares for us.
May we always be conscious of you in our lives.
Amen

Thought of the Week
God bless,

This week we recognise and highlight the achievement of this student from our school community:
Name: Zoe Lenehan
Age: 11
Class: Year 5
Interests: Tennis and hanging out wth friends.
Achievements: Zoe has been learning to play flute for the past 2 years. This term Zoe has been very excited to report that she passed her Grade 1 exam with an amazing 'A'.
Zoe loves to play the flute. Some of the songs Zoe plays are:
- Walking to the Study
- Fairest Isle
- Going Cuckoo
Her favourite is 'Walking to the Study' because it is a nice, easy tempo and easy listening. Zoe has set a goal to pass Grade 2, with as much success, next year in Term 3. (Exams are conducted once every year).
Zoe's flute teacher is Liz Boland from Young School of Music.
Well done Zoe!!
