Welcome Back

The year has commenced with families and students quickly settling into school routines. Thanks to those parents and family members who were able to attend the P-5 Opening Service last Friday and the P-5 Parent Information Evening on Wednesday night. Your support is much appreciated by both staff and the children. I often refer to the triangle of learning that exists at Pacific. It is the relationships between staff, students and parents that hold the corners of the triangle together and is fundamental in shaping the College’s positive community and our successful learning environment.

Congratulations to all students who participated in the Years 3-6 Swimming Carnival on Thursday. Levels of participation were excellent and the quality of performance high. Participating in a swimming carnival is sometimes challenging for students who are not great swimmers. It was fantastic to see so many students overcome their fears and reach the end of the pool with a smile on their faces. A special thanks to the many parents who assisted in the running of the carnival, without your support the event could not happen. Thanks also to all Year 3-6 classroom teachers and HPE staff for their work on the day and in setting up the site. Particularly, we thank Mr Darren Hooper for organising the carnival.
