Open Day

During Catholic Schools Week, we joined prospective 2026 Kindergarten students and their families to showcase our amazing school. Our very responsible Kindergarteners helped their new friends through a variety of stations, including Sport, Music, Literacy, Science and Technology rotations. 

Mother's Day Morning 

We had a lovely morning in May welcoming our Mums, Grandmas and special women to our Mother’s Day Pamper Palace. With coffee and pastry in hand our visitors enjoyed a pamper session fit for a queen. Nails were painted, hands massaged, hair styled and for the brave, makeup applied! It was a lovely opportunity for Kindergarten students to show their immense appreciation for the wonderful women in their lives. We hope all the mothers and motherlike figures were spoiled.

Teddy Bear's Picnic 

It was wonderful to see the excitement of the students as they participated in the Teddy Bear’s Picnic on last Tuesday at St Mary’s. This was a great example of our connection with our Pathway schools, as St Bernard’s Kindergarten students met up with students from St Mary’s for a fun-filled day. We are very grateful to the Carroll College SRC students for the leadership and engagement they displayed whilst participating in activities. From dancing to decorating and everything in between, there was something for everyone and every bear to enjoy. The day was finished off with a lovely sausage sizzle, healthy snacks and of course some tiny teddies before our bus ride back to school. It was a bear-y good day!

Buddies

At St Bernard’s, one of the important ways we build community relationships is through our ‘Buddies’ program. Each Kindergarten student has a ‘buddy’ in Year 5. These very special friends support our newest school members as they settle into life at big school. So far this year, our amazing Year 5 buddies have joined us for picnic lunches, school masses, craft and reading activities. Kindergarten students always look forward to our time with our buddies. Thank you, buddies, for making our start to big school such a positive experience!

There is never a dull moment in Kindergarten at St Bernard’s, and the remainder of Term 2 will be no exception to this! We are looking forward to participating in our first school Athletics Carnival, crazy hair day and Pyjama Day later this term.
