Welcome to Week 10,

On Sunday we celebrate the Feast of St Vincent de Paul,

“Charity is the cement which binds communities to God and persons to one another.” – St Vincent de Paul

This spirit of compassionate, organised service is why St Vincent de Paul is honoured as the patron saint of Vinnies and a universal symbol of practical love for the poor. The work that Vinnies do in our community is invaluable. 

Footy Fever

Today there was a festival of colour across the school for Footy Fever Day. Thanks to everyone who donated a gold coin, this money will be a part of our fundraising for Global Schools Partners. To anyone who has a team left in the finals...good luck and to all the Raiders fans, better luck next year!

Our Community Council ran a fabulous tuck day on Tuesday and the students were delighted when their goody bags were delivered. A huge Thank you to Sarah H for her efforts in sorting and packing these treats. 

The end of term 3 has come quickly, we hope all our families are able to take time to enjoy the spring sunshine and find pleasure in time spent together. I want to thank the staff across Holy Trinity who have worked tirelessly to support our learners both inside and outside the classroom. I wish all the staff a wonderful holiday break. Term 4 is busy and the calendar is filling up with important events that you won't want to miss. Please check the impotant dates below in the newsletter. 

Term 3 Awards

Congratulations to our awards winners across the last few weeks. It is wonderful to hear about the growth in learning and also how our learners are dispaying the values of Faith, Hope and Love. 

Holy Trinity Students Shine at the Wally Masur Cup

Last Friday, our students had a fantastic day at the Wally Masur Cup. Our teams represented the school with great spirit, sportsmanship, and determination. A special congratulations to two of the teams who competed in the grand final, an impressive achievement! The winning team will now progress to the ACT final in Term 4. Well done to all our students for their effort, teamwork, and pride in representing our school.

We look forward to welcoming all our students back on Tuesday October 14 in their summer uniform. May your break be restful and filled with sunshine. Enjoy time with your families, opportunities to be together are precious!

Yours in Faith, Hope and Love

Grandparents Day

Emily Capper

Religious Education Coordinator

Over the last couple of years, we have seen the power of tennis to bring students and teachers together, fostering connection, a love of sport and nurturing community. To build on this success and extend that same joy to our wider school family, we will be hosting our first-ever Family Tennis Challenge.

When - Friday, 17^th October, 3:30 - 6:30 PM

Where - Holy Trinity Tennis Courts (Blacktop)

RSVP -  Holy Trinity Family Tennis Challenge Form

This challenge is designed for everyone. Come along, whether you play regularly or have never held a racquet. Parents and children will team up for friendly doubles matches using modified equipment and relaxed rules that work for all skill levels. If you'd rather not play, we can pair your child with one of our teachers who love the game just as much. Please remember that all parents are required to stay and supervise their children.

We're timing this event during ACT Children's Week because it perfectly captures what we're celebrating - children's right to play, explore new activities, and be part of a supportive community. Tennis has become such a wonderful part of our school culture, and we want every family to experience the joy and connection it brings.

Please RSVP using the link above, then just turn up ready to play! We're providing all equipment, including racquets, balls, and everything else you need.

We can't wait to see our Holy Trinity community come together on the courts.
