CAROLS IN THE COMMUNITY

December 7, 2017

Our community gathered under the stars on Saturday to kick off what will be a wonderful Christmas season. Hosted by Trinity North Uniting Church and St Stephen’s, Carols in the Community was a beautiful opportunity for families and friends to come together to celebrate Christmas – with a visit from Santa of course! Families also worked together to build traditional wooden mangers at the Make A Manger workshop to recognise the true meaning of Christmas.

Students shine like a star

December 4, 2017

Last Friday Duncraig Secondary played host to the students from the Early Learning Centre (ELC) and their families. This event is a wonderful highlight to the end of the academic year.

The children and staff worked very hard practice to put on a such wonderful Christmas Nativity play. The students were excellent at remembering all their words and cues.

After the play Mrs. Jacques, Mrs. Gray and Mr. Deck handed out awards to students before the event ended with a prayer.

For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Cou
