Koolyangarra Day
On Friday 1st of March Koolyangarra and Campion celebrated their House days. It was beautiful to see the sea of green at the 8am community mass and throughout the whole day. We celebrated two big events that have occurred already this year - the Year 12 ball and the Inter-House Swimming Carnival. We were particularly proud of the latter as once again, Koolyangarra were triumphant in taking home the trophy! During our assembly we recognised the students that guided us to victory on the day:

Our House Captains, Georgia Lambert and Jack D'Souza, are to be commended for an outstanding start to the year. They have been exceptional role models and have been very enthusiastic about all House related matters. In particular, they are to be commended for writing the first ever Koolyangarra prayer. It is a beautiful prayer that encompasses all aspects of Koolyangarra. Thank you and well done Jack and Georgia!

Koolyangarra House Prayer

Koolyangarra, the meeting place of happy children, is not just a house, but a family
Let us give thanks for the friendships Koolyangarra gives us
As our green shirts unite us to triumph and reach for Greater things
Let us remember the symbol of the dove, which represents peace and life
As we strive to serve others, guided to lead lives of strength, spirit and justice
