During our Book Week Assembly, Stage 2 shared how the many stories of the Bible come together as one grand story of God's love and rescue plan, with God as the ultimate orchestrator of them all.

For the parade, each of the stage teachers selected a book, dressed as favourite characters, and chose music to match their story. Students proudly paraded in their creative costumes, cheered on by peers, staff, and the many parents and carers who joined us for the celebration. The atmosphere was filled with fun, excitement, and a love of reading.

A special highlight of the day was seeing our Kindergarten and Stage 1 students enjoying stories read by Year 11 and 12 students, creating precious memories and celebrating the joy of sharing books together.

Thank you to our students, staff, and families for making Book Week such a wonderful celebration of stories, imagination, and community.

Secondary celebrated Book Week by getting dressed up as some of their favourite characters across a Symphony of Stories - this year's theme.

Throughout the week, students considered the symphony of God's word and how all parts of it play an instrument in God's big plan of redemption.

The students engaged with reading and celebrated each other's writing in various games and activities, including a flash fiction competition, and the Stage 6 students reading some of their favourite childhood books with Stage 1.

Junior School students enjoyed the live interactive performance Something Special by Perform Education. Inspired by the CBCA shortlisted books Dawn, A Loo of One's Own, and Dear Broccoli, the show combined reading, music, and song in a fun and engaging way. Students learned valuable lessons about listening to others, sharing ideas, and working together as a team.
