Some great artist from Room 1

Here some of our little ones were not only showing their art skills but also their learning around the solar system.

St Mary's sharing their gift of music

St Mary's college came to share their talents in music with our whole school. The little one loved this and really enjoyed learning about the different instruments that the 'big' girls played.

Our Reading worm!

What a great BOOK WEEK we had. The challenge was 200 books and we got there. Thanks to our fabulous librarian Polly Gosh and all her helpers.
Children had activities every break time and really enjoy being excited about reading.
READING OPENS DOORS TO THE MIND!

Tough Guy and Gal challenge - St Dominic's Staff push the limits.

This is the third year in a row St Doms staff have gone into this race. A great chance to team build but also to practice our value of 'perseverance'

Loads of fun!

Catholic Conference 2015

What a great conference this was.
Being able to come together as one faith community across New Zealand to learn and pray together was a great experience.
Sir Brother Patrick Lynch Chief Executive of NZCEO addressed us.
He spoke of our catholic schools in New Zealand constantly striving for excellence and how our schools need to have Christ at the centre of all we do.
