Dear Parent and Guardians,  

On Friday the 28th of August St. Joseph’s, Weipa celebrated Book Week. The Theme was Curious Creatures, Wild Minds. The students did a fantastic job creating their costumes and particiating in the Book Week Parade. 

Year 4 have been working hard over the last 2 weeks, between finalising their learning and beginning assessment, there has been a waterfall of brain juices flowing! Throughout our studies in Hass and English, we have been investigating the adventures of various explorers, mapping out the new world, prior to 1800. Their adventures were filled with challenges, disease, the unknown and limited technologies, so there is always plenty to learn. Some explorers were even swept away with the tide and ended up on the wrong shores!

Religion has us looking at the stories of Joseph within the Book of Genesis. Joseph was surely a man that was faced with challenges throughout his life, and with the support of our Lord, he was equipped to face them all.  

We wish you all a very safe and relaxing holiday and we look forward to seeing you all in Term 4. 

Regards,
