Welcome back to term 3!
I hope you enjoyed a restful winter break! We recently celebrated a significant milestone as Hub marked its 10th anniversary at our school on June 28th. The event was truly remarkable, and I want to extend my heartfelt gratitude to each one of you for making it an unforgettable celebration. A special shout-out to our P&C for organizing a fantastic BBQ on the day!
One of the highlights of the celebration was the release of our storybook, “Stories of Wonder (Wonder of Waste).” This collection of eight stories, authored by members of the Hub, is a testament to our community's creativity and talent. We also had the pleasure of witnessing our families' newly acquired skills in cake decoration and floristry, along with an energetic performance by our dance fitness group. It was a proud moment for all of us!
This term, Hub has an exciting lineup of programs that you won’t want to miss. Parramatta Community College is offering an Office Admin Skills course and a Fully Certified First Aid course on Tuesdays. There are a few spots available, and these courses are free for Australian citizens and permanent residents who are unemployed or underemployed and looking to upskill.
We’re also introducing "Digital Sisters," a three-week program designed for women aged 18 to 50 to enhance their computer skills. This program has no visa restrictions and will run on Wednesdays from 9:30 am to 11:30 am, starting July 31st through August 14th.
Additionally, OzHarvest will be hosting a healthy cooking program on Tuesdays. Due to recent organizational changes, these sessions will begin on August 20th. If you’re interested, please reach out to Seetha to register.
Our beloved English class, Playgroup, and Dance Fitness sessions will continue on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, respectively.
We look forward to seeing you at these wonderful programs and continuing to build our vibrant community!
