Week 6, Term 2
So much has happened since our last newsletter. We are now more than halfway through Term 2, with the long weekend at our doorstep. The long weekend is well placed for students and staff to catch their breath amidst this very academically focussed term. It will be particularly useful for our Seniors as they are in the midst of the exam period.
Reconciliation Week has been explored at PCACS this week through thoughtful Chapel Services at both Calista and Wellard as well as lots of activities across classrooms. The theme this year is Be a Voice for Generations, with a call to all of us to act in a way that encourages a more just, equitable and reconciled nation for all.
This has also been a milestone week for Western Australia with Premier Mark McGowan stepping down from the role. We thank Mr McGowan for his strong leadership, especially through COVID. Congratulations to the Member for Kwinana, The Honourable Roger Cook, for his ascendency to the role of Premier. Mr Cook is an active and supportive local member and we wish him well as he takes over the leadership of our state.
Cross Country
Congratulations to our ACC Cross Country team who competed in the biggest ACC event yesterday. Teams from all independent and catholic schools take on the course around Perry Lakes. The day proved successful with the team in great spirits. The Junior School Cross Country was held last Friday. Thank you to Mrs Rhiannon Chapman and the Junior School staff for holding such as successful event. It was wonderful to see so many family members cheering the students on.

As we head into the long weekend, I hope we can all spend time with family and loved ones as we recognise WA Day.
Go well, everyone.
Ms Felicity House
