Over the weekend, Year 5 student Owen and Year 6 student Isla travelled to Brisbane to compete at Nissan Arena, home of the Firebirds, as part of their respective Capricornia Netball teams.

Owen played Fri-Mon (4 days), his Capricornia team came 5th overall out of 10 teams across the state. Owen was chuffed to receive man of the match for one of the games.

Isla played very well, playing at both ends of the court in GA GS GD and GK. She was awarded MVP by the team/region that took out the win undefeated which was metropolitan west and awarded player of the match by her coaches in another game.

Congratulations Owen and Isla, we are so proud of you both!

National Simultaneous Story Time

Today- Wednesday 27 May 2026 at 12.00 pm AEST, millions of children, parents, teachers, and library lovers across Australia and beyond came together to read Luna Roo at the same time — celebrating the joy of reading, storytelling and connection. Our Prep to Year 2 students watched the story Luna Roo being read at midday in the hall. Other year levels enjoyed the story with a message for everyone, in their classrooms. The story follows the spirited kangaroo Luna and her friends as they chase their football dreams across the outback, blending action, teamwork and fun to inspire young readers. Navigating nerves, tricky opponents, and unexpected hurdles reflects the kind of determination kids face every day. It is a powerful celebration of courage, self-belief, and pushing through when things get tough.

First-time authors Adam Jackson and Adrian Lloyd wanted to share their love of football and storytelling with young readers — combining decades of experience on and off the field.

“We wrote these books to share our love of sport with our children, and we’re thrilled that NSS will enable us to connect with millions of young readers across the country,” said Adam Jackson. “Plus, with the Matildas competing in the Women’s Asian Cup here in Australia in March and the Socceroos heading to the FIFA World Cup in June, football will be front of mind for families across the globe!”

Now in its 26th year, NSS stands as one of Australia’s biggest collective reading events, with over 2.2 million participants joining from more than 16,600 locations last year.

“We are so proud of the role NSS plays in the Australian community, bringing millions of people together to celebrate the joys of reading and storytelling” said ALIA CEO Cathie Warburton. “With declining literacy rates and the known benefits of recreational reading - NSS is an event that is needed now more than ever.
