There is strong evidence that challenging, achievable goals influence achievement, provided the individual is involved in setting them.
Achievement is enhanced when challenging, rather than “do your best” goals, relative to the students’ ability, are set.

This year we have seen one of our own achieve incredible results in the swimming pool. Hunter Kelly, of Year 4 (U/10’s), has a achieved his best results in the swimming pool this year. He managed to get progress through Zone Carnival, Diocesan Carnival, Catholic State Carnival and reached the All Schools State Championships where he finished 26th.
Much like our learning in the classroom it is always about achieving your personal best. Setting growth goals to challenge yourself to succeed and reach your potential.
Congratulations to Hunter Kelly on achieving his personal best result in the pool this year. As his classroom teacher, I can see this passion for personal bests also happening in the classroom.

🎉✨ **What a way to end the term!** ✨🎉 On Friday we came together as a school community to celebrate St Finbar’s Day, and what a celebration it was! We began the day with a truly beautiful liturgy honouring the life of St Finbar and reflecting on the way his example continues to inspire us to live with faith, compassion, and courage. From there, we were delighted to acknowledge our students who consistently live out the charisms of our school, shining as leaders through their kindness, generosity, and inclusivity. These moments reminded us of the many ways our young people light the way for others each day. 🌟 And then… the celebrations turned into pure joy! Our playground came alive with fun, games, and a carnival-like atmosphere; laughter, colour, and excitement filling every corner of the school. It was the perfect way to finish the term, celebrating not only St Finbar but also the strong sense of community we share. Wishing our community a safe and peaceful holiday break.25 Sep 2025
