The transition to high school is an important time for our Year 6 students and a group boarded a bus to visit St Columba’s Springwood to check out the “big school”.
The move from primary to high school may be considered a key ‘rite of passage’ as students move from one level of schooling to another.
Such a move generally requires a change of school, mixing with a new and different peer group, learning new forms of school organisation and having many more teachers – with each perhaps having a different teaching style.
High schools are, in most cases, significantly larger than primary schools and students are required to move to different locations throughout the day for their various classes.
That’s why Our Lady of Nativity takes extra care with its students in the transition to high school.

Friday was filled with love, laughter, and proud smiles as we celebrated Grandparents Day 2025. 💛 Grandparents and special friends poured into our church to celebrate mass for the St Mary of the Cross MacKillop feast day, combined with Grandparents Day. They stayed to visit our classrooms, listened to stories, admired work, and shared in the joy of learning. For our students, it was a chance to show just how much they’ve grown – and to say thank you for the wisdom, care, and encouragement they receive every day. What a wonderful crowd and a truly memorable day for our OLN community. 🌼 #GrandparentsDay #OLNCommunity #MakingMemories
