Award Winners

Our award winners this week.

National Sorry Week

Our Year 3 to 6 students attended the Bland Shire Sorry Day celebrations at Barnardo Park on Friday the 26th of May.  Our students, under the fabulous guidance of Mrs Harland performed two songs.  It was good for our students to participate in this event and learn about the importance of National Reconciliation Day.

Our Kinder, Year 1 and Year 2 students went to the TAFE on Monday the 29th of May and listened to Taylor Hampton read his story "Our Mob".  This was followed by boomerang throwing at McAlister Oval.

It was wonderful to see our younger students have a fabulous time while learning about our indigenous culture.

Mortimer Shield Year 5/6

Our Year 5/6 boys and girls competed at the Mortimer Shield League and League Tag Gala Day last Wedneday in Young.

We fielded three teams, one boys tackle team and two girls League Tag teams. The structure of the competition changed into a development carnival in 2023.  Our three teams combined played 13 games in all and the students developed their skills throughout the day and displayed great sportsmanship.

Thank you to Karl Tulloch, Will Dean and Jodie McDonell who coached the teams on the day.  A special thank you to Jodie who also came to school and helped the students prepare for the event.  St Mary's really appreciate their willingness to share imporant skills and knowledge with our students.

Well done to everyone involved.
