Dear Parents, Students & Friends,
Last Friday our Grade 5 students and Grade 6 school leaders had the opportunity to vote for the 2024 school captains. Listening to these speeches, I was impressed with the way that each and every one of the candidates went about their speeches. I was so proud of every student who stepped forward and bravely spoke in front of an audience of peers and staff and I know that each of them would make excellent School Captains; however, we can only have two!
Our School Captains for 2024 are Daniel Y and Isabella A.
Daniel Y Isabella A
This exciting news was shared at this week’s assembly, where Daniel and Isabella also received a blessing from Fr Gerard. We thank all of the candidates for their efforts and commitment in preparing and delivering their leadership speeches.
Today, the Grade 4 and 5 candidates for House Captains delivered their speeches to their houses. The votes will be counted and the captains will be announced next Monday at the whole school assembly.
The Social Justice, Sustainability & Environment and Faith & Life Captain candidates will then be delivering their speeches on Thursday 9th November with the leaders being announced at assembly on Monday 13th of November.
I ask you to pray for these student leaders as they prepare to lead Resurrection in 2024.
The Inspiration of Art and Cultural Show
Thank you to all who came along to Resurrection’s annual Art and Cultural show. It was wonderful to see so many of our community not only in their cultural dress but also looking through and discussing the wonderful art work on display. A huge thank you to Mr Jake Moloney for his organisation and preparation for Wednesday evening
2024 School Fees
Our school has much to offer and provides a very affordable Catholic education for our students. All it takes to appreciate this is to visit some of our local Catholic schools and enquire as to their specialist programs, services provided, and the costs involved.
To keep our own costs as affordable as they are, we do everything possible to maximise our resources and the grants that are made available to us.
However, the payment of the school fees and levies is what makes the biggest difference.
Without families contributing to the running costs of Resurrection, we simply could not achieve, nor do what we do.
Please note that there is a slight increase to the annual school fees at Resurrection Catholic Primary School for 2024.
What’s inclusive of the School Fees?
The annual school fees at Resurrection Primary School include all excursions, incursions, personal learning devices, stationery, camps and administration costs. School photos and school uniforms will be at an additional cost to you. Please advise us if you have a current healthcare card, pension card or immigration card, as this could further reduce the cost of your school fees.
School Fees Pack
A school fees pack is provided to all families at the start of Term 1 and includes:
· School fees statement
· CSEF (Camp, Sports and Excursions Fund) application form
· MACS (Melbourne Archdiocese Catholic Schools) concessional fee application form
· Direct debit authority form
· Centrepay deductions authority form
School fees payment plans
Families have the option to enter a school fees payment plan as follows:
Example
Prep and Year 3 - Total annual cost is $2,550
Additional Notes
All school fees are due by 10th March 2024 unless a payment plan has been arranged with the School Bursar.
School fees are determined annually by the MACS Board. Fees generally increase with the EPI (Education Price Index), which is approximately 3-4% per annum.
School fees questions
If you have any questions regarding school fees, please do not hesitate to contact our School Bursar at 03 8312 6312 or at accounts@rskingspark.catholic.edu.au
School Fees In Arrears
For families who are currently in arrears for the 2023 school year and have not made an arrangement with the school, it is essential that you please attend to your account as soon as possible or to contact the office prior to Friday 10th November 2023.
We truly thank our families who have ensured that their child’s school fees and levies have been paid or who have contacted us to put in place arrangements to suit the family budget whilst being able to access the educational services of the school.
Working together makes a huge difference to ensuring we are able to provide you and your child with the best learning and community experience possible.
NAPLAN – Results are in and Resurrection students are showing growth!
Late last week the 2023 NAPLAN results were released to schools. I am very pleased to share that this data shows an upwards trend at Resurrection.
Mr Grant Lewis, our school’s external consultant, explains this in more detail further in this newsletter.
2024 Planning & Class Placement
Just a reminder that planning for the 2024 school is well underway. Please email the office (office@rskingspark.catholic.edu.au) if your children are intending on leaving Resurrection at the end of year.
We are also inviting you to write about your child’s learning and social needs to assist us in the placement of your child into specific classrooms for the 2024 school year. Please note that we may not be able to provide you with exactly what you want, but we do try to do our best given the many and diverse factors that go into making up a class.
Please email myself (jdavis@rskingspark.catholic.edu.au) with the heading “Confidential – 2024 Class Placement”. All emails must be received by Friday 3rd November 3.30pm.
Kind regards,
Jess Davis
Acting Principal
School Closure Day
Monday 20th November
STEM - Smart City Expo
Over the last semester, the Grade 5 students have participated in a SMART CITY challenge. Our task was to design a model city that featured electronic devices such as LED lights, fans, noise detectors, sensor lights, automated garbage bins and much more! During STEM lessons, our students were required to develop a range of new programming skills to meet the requirements of this task.
Four student representatives from each Grade 5 class were selected to present a model for our school. Words cannot even begin to express how proud I am of the children. They represented our school with distinction. They presented confidently to both children and adults from other schools.
Our school was fortunate enough to receive a trophy in recognition of our
Outstanding Achievement! I congratulate the AMAZING work of our Year 5 students.

Brittany Davidson and Matthew Galea
The Rosary
On Friday the 21st of October all of the Year 3s came together and made a giant set of Rosary beads. Each child got a coloured circle. It was either blue, to represent the Hail Mary or red, to represent the Our Father. Some people even got a sentence. That was the Glory Be. Everyone cut their circle out and stuck it down on a paper plate. We decorated the outside. The Rosary is a gift from Mary that we are told to pray to our Lord and Saviour.
Santa O 3B
The Rosary is a necklace but can be different sizes. The first part is a cross which is called the Sign of the Cross (lower) and Apostles Creed (upper). The next bead is the Our Father. Then the three Hail Mary prayers, each representing hope, love and faith. The next bead represents the Glory Be. Then you say the Hail Mary ten times. October is the month of the Rosary.
Joy M 3B
As we end the month of the Rosary, we look forward to adding our Year Level reflections to this display over the next two weeks. The Rosary is on the wall between the 3B and 3C classrooms for everyone to visit and reflect if they wish.
For our previous Resilience Challenge, we looked at facing our challenges head on, and seeing them as an opportunity for growth. We recognised that as we face these challenges, we become stronger learners and more resilient as people. At school, teachers plan lessons that can sometimes challenge our thinking and our learning. It is important that we see this challenge using a positive mindset, and to give it our best shot.
This week, we have a new challenge to face, remembering that we see these challenges as an opportunity to grow:
Cultivate a positive mindset and focus on the good.
There is a lot happening in the world at the moment, and watching the news each night shows us the amount of negativity currently taking place in the world. When the news has so much negativity, as well as bad things happening in our own lives, it can be quite easy for us to be sad and negative ourselves. This negative mindset can be easily spread to the people around us through our body language, words and actions.
Thinking back to the news, while it usually shows sad events taking place around the world, it usually ends with a positive, happy or even funny story. News anchors always try to finish their shows with a positive story to recognise that while there is a lot of bad, there is also a lot of good in the world too.
This week, focus on the good! Think about all the great things that are happening in the world, as well as your own personal life. It is important that we develop an optimistic attitude and concentrate on the positive aspects of our lives. This allows us to model positive thinking and a positive mindset to those closest to us.
We can’t experience true happiness without facing a little bit of sadness.
Joss Coaley
Middle School Leader
Thanks to a kind donation from the Brimbank City Council, our school received some seedlings to add to our school’s Veggie Garden.
Our sustainability leaders, Daniel and Nyakir, worked hard to prepare a disused space to hopefully transform it into an additional garden bed.
A special thank you to Daniel, Nyakir, Mr Matt Dalton and Mrs Enza La Rosa for organising this exciting project.
PBL Update
What a start to the term we have had!! Last week I had the pleasure of receiving many emails from staff explaining that students have earned many PBL cards and looking to trade them in for a prize from the prize box.
The classes I went to were 2A, 3A, 3B, 3C and 4A. Going into these classes we had a total of over 20 students who have received 30 PBL cards and have traded them in for a reward.
Well done to all who have shown the PBL values: Respect, Responsible and Resilient!
Congratulations, well done and continue to show our PBL values!

NAPLAN - Results unpacked
Each year, students in Grades 3, 5, 7 and 9 participate in NAPLAN testing. These tests are a way to measure growth and learning in a number of ways.
Parents receive a copy of their individual’s child’s NAPLAN report which plots their child’s achievement in the following areas:
Reading
Writing
Spelling
Numeracy
Grammar & Punctuation
As a school we also get these individual reports, but we are also able to access reports that speak to our school and its progress and growth. These reports are used to measure our effectiveness and provide potential future foci for student instruction and teacher professional learning and development.
NAPLAN produces trend data for schools to analyse to see how they progress over a 5-year period (as this can be indicative of effectiveness). 2019’s data for Resurrection reflected a school that was in need of direction and development in the key areas of Literacy and Numeracy education, that was not to say the practice and the learning was not evident, but the aspirations and standards needed to be challenged.
So, we challenged them.
Our trend data over the 5-year period is quite strong.
In summary over the 5 years, this is how we have progressed:
Grade 3 Reading - We have enhanced our scores and maintained our relationship with State averages
Grade 3 Writing - We have gone from being well below state averages, to being above average.
Grade 3 Spelling - We were in 2019, below state average scores, but now in 2023 we are well above state averages.
Grade 3 Grammar & Punctuation - We have progressed from being more than significantly below state benchmarks, to being almost on par with the state.
Grade 3 Numeracy - We have grown here too! 5 years ago, we were well below state averages, now we are significantly closer to them!
Grade 5 Reading - In the 5-year period, the average reader in Victoria has regressed (gone backwards). Not so for readers at Resurrection. We have shown growth in that period of time.
Grade 5 Writing - We have made gains and become closer again to the state average.
Grade 5 Spelling & Grammar & Punctuation - Another good news story - going from well below state averages, to just under state averages.
Grade 3 Numeracy - Similarly, we have shown growth and development and maintained our relationship compared to state averages.
The data that shows growth and progress of our current Grade 5s compared to how they progressed in Grade 3.
Over the period from 2021 to 2023, Resurrection has been a place of learning and growth for our Grade 5s. Normally you would expect growth, as the children get older and experience more learning. But this is not the growth we experienced. The growth experienced mean that:
Your reading would improve as expected over the two years.
But - your Numeracy & Grammar & Punctuation would indicate around 2 and a half years growth in that period.
AND your Writing & Spelling would improve around 3 years in that time.
What that means is that if you want your child to grow and develop - then Resurrection is the place to be!
Results like this do not simply materialise through desire or hope. They come through a wide variety of forms. The leadership of the school set standards high for themselves and for the staff and students. These high standards, along with high levels of support and professional development have equipped the staff to deliver high quality learning for the students.
These results are not the results to assign to individual teachers or to a year level. They are a cumulative result of all the structures, teachers and leaders who have worked with the students to develop them as learners.
But the school cannot do it alone. The support that parents and carers have and their involvement in the learning lives of their children impacts learning and engagement greatly. A school can have systems, policies, pedagogical approaches, but without the support of parents at home, the impact will not be as significant.
And the third most crucial component that builds change in learning are the students themselves. Their focus and dedication to self-improvement are key to improvement. Their desire to change, improve and learn play the key role in development.
It is wonderful to be able to share such positive news in relation to NAPLAN. The NAPLAN results have been steadily growing since 2019 and I look forward to seeing what is possible with the learners and learning at Resurrection in the future.
In learning,
Grant Lewis

A reading from the holy Gospel according to Matthew (22: 34 - 40)
You shall love the Lord your God and your neighbour as yourself.
When the Pharisees heard that Jesus had silenced the Sadducees they got together and, to disconcert him, one of them put a question, ‘Master, which is the greatest commandment of the law?’ Jesus said, ‘You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the greatest and the first commandment. The second resembles it: you must love your neighbour as yourself. On these two commandments hang the whole Law, and the Prophets also.’
Gospel Reflection
Like last week’s gospel, we again have an example of the Pharisees seeking to ‘catch Jesus out’ in his interpretation of scripture. The Pharisees were regarded as the great interpreters of the Torah – the Law. To them, ALL the commandments were vitally important, not just the Ten Commandments given to Moses with which we are perhaps most familiar, but the 613 mitzvot (commandments) contained within the Torah – the first five books of the Bible. These 613 mitzvot governed all aspects of Jewish life. For the Pharisees to ask Jesus about the ‘greatest’ commandment was a blatant challenge to him. Perhaps they expected Jesus to name one commandment and then they could challenge him with a whole series of ‘What about …?’ questions.
Jesus’ answer to the Pharisees highlights their preoccupation with the particulars of the Law contained within scripture. In their over-emphasis on the details of religious observance, they have forgotten about the most basic element of faith: to love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul and mind. Jesus reminds them that being faithful to God isn’t about following precise rules but rather it is simply about loving God. With this one sentence, Jesus undermines the power position of the Pharisees. If the Law is as simple as ‘Love God’, what need is there of Pharisees to interpret the details of the Law? Having pulled the rug out from under them, Jesus follows up with his reminder that the second most important commandment is to love your neighbour as yourself. This is a call to compassion and justice that Jesus practised freely but was sadly lacking in the religious authorities of his time.
Scriptural Context – Quoting scripture
The question and response that we see in this gospel passage was a common form of scholarly debate in the Jewish tradition. The Pharisees ask Jesus which of the commandments is the greatest. Jesus responds by directly quoting the commandment from the ancient scriptures. His reply, ‘You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind,’ comes directly from Deuteronomy 6:4. Further, Jesus’ Follow up, ‘you must love your neighbour as yourself,’ comes from Leviticus 19:18. Deuteronomy and Leviticus are two of the first five books of the Bible that make up the Jewish Torah, or Law.
Living the Gospel -Compassion
Jesus’ words call us to love our neighbour as ourselves. We are called to treat others as we would like to be treated ourselves. To be able to do this, we need to picture ourselves in their place – experiencing all that they are experiencing; not imposing our own values and circumstances. To see ourselves in the place of another is the key to responding with compassion. The origin of the word ‘compassion’ means experiencing with. If we are able to truly ‘experience with’ another person perhaps then we can genuinely recognise and respond to their needs.
Gospel Focus – love your neighbour as yourself
There is an implicit, or understood, commandment within the command to love your neighbour as yourself. That is, we must first love ourselves. Whilst to say someone ‘loves themself’ is used as a criticism of a person who is a bit too vain, that is not what is intended here. If we are to love others as we love ourselves we must first be content and happy with who we are. It is only when we are comfortable with who we are that we are able to reach out to those around us with compassion.
