Farewell, Mrs Knowler
After 39 years of service at St Paul the Apostle Winston Hills, Mrs Pauline Knowler is beginning a new life in retirement.
Pauline has dedicated her working career to supporting the students and community at St Paul the Apostle.
Most of her time has been spent working in the administration area of the school.
Pauline has also spent many years working in conjunction with the Parish through her work with St Vincent De Paul.
We wish Mrs Knowler the best in her retirement and will miss her dearly.

You might have noticed some changes in our social media! St Paul’s have recently made a few changes to the way we share photos and videos of the children online. While you may see a few more photos from a distance or from behind please know that this is all part of our commitment to keeping the children safe and protecting their privacy online. We will still be sharing plenty of the wonderful learning, celebrations, activities and special moments happening across our school. We are just be getting a little more creative with how we capture them! Our teachers and staff are following updated guidelines for sharing images. Thank you for your understanding and support as we continue to create a safe and positive digital environment. We will still be giving you plenty of little glimpses into the things happening at our school!

🏙️ Numeracy Enrichment – Mathematicians Become Architects! 📐 Our Numeracy Enrichment students stepped into the role of architects this week! Students were challenged to design an apartment between 50 and 70 m², carefully considering room sizes, layout and functionality. They then explored how their designs could be translated, reflected and rotated. To finish, students presented their designs to Miss Paul and Miss Deloso, who had the difficult job of selecting their favourite design! 🏆 Next step: students will use their chosen design to create an entire floor of an apartment complex using transformations. But there’s a last-minute twist from the developer… one apartment must be dilated by a scale factor of 2! 😲🏢 We can’t wait to see how our young architects solve their next challenge! 📐

Our schools are cracking the reading code
Do you remember how you learned to read? For a vital skill that is linked to all other learning, it’s surprisingly difficult to explain how to go about learning it.

Six Habits That Help Children Develop a Love of Reading
Book Week is a celebration of stories, imagination and creativity, but helping children love reading isn't just something that happens during one week of the year. The good news? It doesn't take expensive resources or hours of extra time. Often, it's the small, everyday habits that make the biggest difference.

The year 5’s had a bit of a change of scenery for their English lesson today. After spending their writing lesson taking note of what they saw, smelt, felt and heard on our beautiful back paddock. They spent their 15 minutes of reading soaking up some well needed sun ☀️☀️

Last week, we celebrated the strength, culture and identity of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children. Our school community came together to celebrate Indigenous culture through a range of engaging activities and meaningful learning experiences. A special thank you to our Indigenous students who shared what makes them proud of their culture. We would also like to extend our gratitude to Alicia from Jarara for presenting a beautiful handmade snake mosaic to our school community. 💛🖤❤️
