  A little more praising, a little less jeering,

A little more trusting, a little less fearing,

A little more patience in trouble and pain,

A little less willing at times to complain,

A little more kindness worked into strife –

Are all that is needed to glorify life.

A little more honor, a little less greed,

A little more service; a little less creed,

A little more courage when pathways are rough,

A little more action, a little less bluff,

A little more kindness by you and by me,

And oh; what a wonderful world this would be!   

This week we welcomed Aiden Phillips to Year 4. We hope Aiden and his family will be made very welcome in our community.

CPS BASKETBALL

27 & 28 October 2018

A wonderful opportunity has been presented to our school by the school communities of St Mary’s Moruya, St Bernard’s Batemans Bay, and Carroll College Broulee.

An invitation is extended to our drought affected families for a weekend at the South Coast.

The south coast families have offered shared accommodation in their homes for Friday 23 November, Saturday 24 November before the visitors return home on Sunday 25^th.

Our families would be matched with children the same ages from the host families.  Everyone would get together on Friday at 7.00pm at Carroll College for a sausage sizzle and a meet and greet.  The rest of the weekend activities would be up to the individual families.  The duty of care rests with the parents of the children. 

If your family is interested to take up this lovely opportunity please contact Robyn before Friday the 2nd of November.
