🌿🌼 Stage 1 Science Focus: Improving Our Local Environment 🌼🌿 In Stage 1, we’ve been working hard to answer the question: How can we improve our local environment to help living things thrive?💡 With the help of Gillian and Karleen from Blue Mountains City Council, we created a beautiful garden designed to support the Yellow-tailed Black Cockatoo, our school totem. 🌳🦜 The plants supplied by BMCC will provide food and shelter for these incredible birds, helping to nurture and protect them in our area. By working together, we’re not only improving our environment but also learning how every little action can make a big difference for the creatures around us! 🌱💚 #Stage1Science #LocalEnvironment #Sustainability #YellowTailedBlackCockatoo #EcoFriendly #SchoolTotem #GardenProject #GrowingTogether #SaveOurBirds #bmcc @bluemountainscitycouncil @bmgazette #olnlawson #windowintolearning #cspd2024 #parramattadiocese #laudatosi #jarara

Stage 2 have been learning about the Church. With some help from Fr Chris, they reflected on what makes a hero. Students were quick to identify that not all heroes wear capes. Many heroes are the living church by doing good things without any recognition needed. #cspd2024 #olnlawson #windowintolearning #catholiced #catholiceducation #parramattadiocese #bluemountainsprimaryschool #bestschoolinthemountains
