Snr Constable Bollard talking to Stage 3 about being safe when online.
Recently, we have had two police officers come out to speak to us about Cyber Safety.
Here are some student insights from the talk:
Year 3 and 4 had a visit from Constable Rob who talked about how gaming and social media such as Facebook, Instagram, Clash of Clans, Minecraft etc opens you up to friending people you don’t know. You should NEVER friend other people on games like Roblox unless, you have full knowledge of who they are. Nevertheless do not friend others, even if you know them, your parents should be with you as you accept or send a friend request. Constable Rob also showed us three videos on how to deal with bullying and how to prevent cyberbullying.
We also learnt that people in this world, including kids can get into trouble when posting mean comments on social media (which should only really be used by kids 13+) at the age of ten, you can get arrested. Once you post a mean picture or comment of rude or inappropriate things or words it can be traced. Online bullying includes harassment, intimidation or not only online but assault is a bullying offence and a criminal offence.

Years 5 and 6 gathered together to learn about Cyber Safety. We had Senior Constable John Bollard, from the Riverstone Police Station, come and talk to us. He taught us how to keep safe when on social media and when gaming online. He outlined how important it is to keep ourselves safe, and gave us information about what the consequences will be if we misuse our devices. Constable Bollard helped us gain a good understanding of what constitutes cyber safety, and how vital it is for us to be safe online.

Tonight, we join the world in mourning the passing of Pope Francis, a humble and compassionate leader who truly was the Pope of the people. Pope Francis touched countless lives with his message of love, mercy, and justice. He always reminded us to care for the poor, protect the planet, and treat every person with dignity. His legacy of kindness, humility, and faith will live on in the hearts of millions. We are grateful for his inspiring leadership, the powerful example he set for our OLA community, and his love for God’s people. May he now rest in eternal peace.

Today, on Holy Thursday, we remember the Last Supper—a moment of love, humility, and service. Jesus washed his disciples' feet and shared a final meal with them, showing us what it truly means to serve others with love. As we enter the most sacred days of the Easter season, we pause to reflect on His example of compassion, sacrifice, and grace. May this Holy Thursday bring peace and a renewed sense of faith to your heart.

Our Kindergarten students have had an amazing start to their school journey! In just one term, they’ve already learnt so much—from discovering letter sounds, learning to read and write using those sounds, to exploring how to count and make numbers in Maths. They’ve also been busy exploring the world around them in Science, learning about God’s love in Religion, and most importantly… they’ve made new friends and settled beautifully into the routine of school life. We are SO proud of how much they’ve grown already. Well done, Kindergarten—we can’t wait to see what Term 2 brings!

What a way to end the term!! Our amazing Year 1 students took to the stage on Friday and wowed us all with their wonderful assembly! They proudly shared their learning from Religion, reflecting on how we can show kindness and love like Jesus. In History, they took us on a journey to the past, showing how things have changed over time—we loved seeing examples of the games that our parents and grandparents enjoyed playing when they were at school! We also loved seeing their Creative Arts work, especially the vibrant portraits they created, each one full of colour and personality! Seeing their confidence, creativity, and teamwork was such a joy. Well done, Year 1—you made us all very proud! Thank you to the Year 1 teachers and students for their hard work, and to the parents who joined us!
