Our Lady of Nativity is committed to creating a faith filled environment in which it kindles the flame in constant pursuit of growth for every child, according to principal Lisa Samojlowicz.
“We yearn for our children to be curious, confident, self motivated and excited learners who meet the challenges of being creative contributors and innovative problem solvers,” she said.
There is a famous quote “Education is a weapon whose effect depends on who holds it in his hands and at whom it is aimed.”
Together we can achieve this call to action, and I sleep well at night knowing that this “little’ community certainly is ‘monumental' in effecting the lives of our children, due to our commitment to work together: students, parents, teachers and community.
Let us always remember the “light’ we are and can be to others and appreciate the “light” others are to us.

This week, our students proudly celebrated NAIDOC Week by taking part in a range of engaging activities that honoured the rich histories, cultures, and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. Through art, storytelling, discussions, and hands-on learning experiences, students explored the importance of connection to Country, community, culture, and respect. These activities encouraged meaningful conversations and helped deepen our understanding of Australia's First Nations peoples and their enduring contributions. #cspd2026 #jarara #NAIDOCWeek

πͺ The Chairs Quit! πͺ There was quite a surprise in Stage 1 this week... the classroom chairs decided they'd had enough and quit! To persuade them to return, our students took on the challenge of writing convincing letters explaining why the chairs should come back and how they would be better cared for in the future. This fun and engaging activity gave students a meaningful opportunity to develop their persuasive writing skills while using creativity, empathy, and problem-solving. ππβοΈ Luckily after 2 days, with such amazing writing, the chairs were persuaded to return. The students are remembering to treat them kindly and safely. π₯°πͺ #Stage1 #PersuasiveWriting #LearningThroughFun #CreativeClassroom

What a wonderful community we have! π Our parish, families, teachers, and students have been busily knitting squares, which Miss Mahairas has lovingly brought together to create beautiful blankets for the Vinnies Winter Appeal. Some blankets have already been donated, providing warmth and comfort to those in need during the colder months. These are our latest creations, and we couldn't be prouder of the generosity, kindness, and community spirit shown by everyone involved. #vinnieswinterappeal #cspd2026
