Senior Leaders Message
Earlier this term, we recently had the Kindy’s Athletics carnival where they had to run in races and compete in team games. Students in the Interschool Athletics team participated in the Interschool Athletics Carnival where they tried so hard competing against other schools. Some of the Year 6’s were lucky enough to participate in basketball tournaments. They all did very well! The girls team won overall and are going to the next championships! A huge thank you to the PNF for organising the obstacle-a-thon which fundraised money to help assist in purchasing some new playground markings.
Have a great weekend!

BUNNINGS SAUSAGE SIZZLE
Sunday 22 October saw the P&F and helpers spend the day at the local Bunnings running the sausage sizzle. We had an amazing turn out with over $2400 in profits made on the day. We couldn’t have done it without all of our amazing helpers, especially Miss Hiss; Mrs Deans; Mrs Tomazin; Ms Pedulla; Mrs Naylor; Mrs Paternitti; Mr Gaglia; Mrs Reedman; Mrs Atkinson; Mrs Caridi; Mrs Andrews
Special thanks goes to Alfred’s Kitchen in Guildford for the awesome donation of all the sausages and Dr Anne Aly MP-Member for Cowan for her donation towards consumables. It was great seeing so many Good Shepherd families stop by and help us raise some money.
