Stephen Covey writes:

Your life doesn't just "happen." Whether you know it or not, it is carefully designed by you. The choices, after all, are yours. You choose happiness. you choose sadness. you choose decisiveness. You choose ambivalence. You choose success. You choose failure. You choose courage. You choose fear. Just remember that every moment, every situation, provides a new choice. And in doing so, it gives you a perfect opportunity to do things differently to produce more positive results.

What is the fruit that we want to see grown in the lives of our children?
It starts with God.
We were made by Him.
He made us to live in relationship with Him.
Flowing from God is love.
God is love.

RE: UNIFORM ORDERS FOR 2010

Dear Parents,

Please fine attached a Uniform Order Form for 2010. All prices have been revised. Some have gone up, some down and others have stayed the same.

Because some suppliers close down over Christmas, we would like to get in early and ensure that we have your orders ready for next year.

Please fill out one form for each student. More copies are available from the office or our website.

I am continually amazed at the blessing of God. It seems to follow us wherever we go. As the Bible says in Psalm 1:

“Blessed is the man
who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked…
“But his delight is in the law of the LORD,
and on his law he meditates day and night.
“He is like a tree planted by streams of water,
which yields its fruit in season
and whose leaf does not wither.
Whatever he does prospers.”

Students showed good leadership, teamwork and delegation skills as they tackled their first group cooking lessons last week making dips and soups. The fruit of their labour was delicious and your child should now be able to prepare a quick meal to help out at home. This week we are cooking 3 types of pasta - macaroni cheese, spaghetti bolognaise and fettucini carbonara. Recipes are attached.

With an interesting array of recipes being made over the next 3 weeks it would be appreciated if students could each bring a small container to take food home in. The container will need to be able to hold liquid and not leak. This will give families the opportunity to sample what your children are preparing in class. We are working in 3 teams for these exercises and recipes will be posted for you to see. I trust that you will enjoy the fruits of their labour.
