Stage 1 have been learning about Ancient Cultures, their stories and their artefacts. We have learnt the origins of the Dragon Boat festival. We made our own Dragon Boats and today we had some Dragon Boat races with them! We tried floating them down a "river" and well as blowing them along to see the winner. We did some drumming to make it authentic as well. What a fun lesson!

Kindy and Stage 1 had a lovely time at Secret Creek Wildlife Santuary yesterday. We met lots of endangered animals, had a lesson where we got to stroke a lizard and snake and learned so many new facts about the amazing place where we live. Thank you Secret Creek for hosting us and showing us your safe place for endangered animals.

Today, Taleishah from the CSPD Jarara Team visited St Canice’s to work with a group of students on the design of a Message Stick to celebrate and honour 50 years of NAIDOC this July. Our students enjoyed sharing ideas and learning about the significance of Message Sticks as they created a design that reflects our school community. The St Canice’s Message Stick will be one of many contributed by CSPD schools as part of the celebration of "50 Years of NAIDOC – The Next Generation: Strength, Vision & Legacy." We are proud to be part of this special project and look forward to seeing the finished Message Stick exhibited in early Term 3. #NAIDOC2026 #50YearsOfNAIDOC #StCanicesKatoomba #CSPD #JararaTeam
