Dear Parents and Carers,

Last week I attended my final ‘Siloam’ at Galong in New South Wales. Siloam is an overnight opportunity for a small group of Principals to gather and reflect on their leadership and spirituality and is offered twice a year. This year’s theme was Eyes Opened, Paths Shared, encountering Jesus, Receiving, restoring and rejoicing. The first session focused on deep listening and receiving. In this National Reconciliation Week, I am reminded of the need to listen deeply and value our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, histories, cultures, and futures. May all Australians continue this path to true reconciliation with open hearts and minds.

I include images of Galong and the beautiful mosaic of Our Lady of Perpetual Help, may she always guide our journey.

Thank you to all our community for their continued support.
