Kia ora Kevinians and Supporters of the College

The chapel was even more special today as Dominican Sisters Nola Gleeson and Mary Horn were with us for Mass celebrating the feast day of St Dominic. Sister Mary delivered the homily and outlined some of our recent histories, such as the arrival of the statue of St Dominic outside our chapel. She, of course, reflected on today's readings and got us all thinking.

The Obirin Japanese student trip is well underway, and students have been experiencing life in New Zealand along with intense English development at the SKC Language School. The team is doing a great job, ensuring the stay is enjoyable and valuable.

Around the school, there has been plenty of singing, debating and speech preparations. We are building up to the SKC Singing Festival here at school and Bishops Shield Competition at Verdon College later in the term.

Next week watch out for a Credit Summary Report for seniors as we get ready for those critical discussions during the Student-Led Conferences at the end of week 4.

Thank you for the whole communities support as the school settles into this relevant school term of endeavour, as so much preparation for next year is gained now.

I hope you have a pleasant and enjoyable weekend.

God bless
