Year 11 Moroccan Food
Tasting Expo
The year 5 students were invited
to participate in a Moroccan
food expo run by the year 11
Food and Hospitality students as
part of their assignment. Students
had the opportunity to taste a
variety of foods and to see
some traditional ingredients.
From the Principal
Dear Families,
It has been a busy few weeks in the lead up to end of term 3.
• Last week’s Primary team games event was a resounding success. It was extremely
positive, and finished with one of the closest sports day results we have ever seen.
Amazingly, after quite a few years without a win, the Luther team was triumphant. The
result was not known until the end of the very last event.
• Tomorrow night is one of the highlights of the year. It is the Year 12 Formal, where we
celebrate in style the culmination of all the hard work that has led up to the end of the
Primary and Secondary schooling years.
Our Year 12 group has been fantastic, and set a good standard of conduct and work
habits.
We are looking forward to a great night, with family and close friends in attendance to
celebrate in style.
• As we finish up for holidays this week, now would be a good time to take up the free
Family Zone trial, to see if this service is a good fit for you and your family.
Please go to:
https://www.familyzone.com/midnorthcc and use the code fz123 to trial the service until
the end of the year.

Mid North Christian College Notices
• Recently there seems to have been a lot of sickness, and a lot of weariness. I hope and pray that these two weeks of
break will bring good opportunities to rest and recharge from the busy-ness of everything that has been going on.
Our last Bible verse from Galatians this week is “So let’s not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we wil l
reap a harvest of blessing if we don’t give up.”
Fruitfulness is a strong Biblical concept, and as we know in gardening it comes after planning, effort, attention to detail,
and follow through to the finish. It can be easy to give up when weary or when overwhelmed. But let’s not give up easily.
At this time it is good to review our priorities and work habits, and reflect on which things are sapping our effectiveness,
and which things are energising us?
Have a great break, and we look forward to seeing you back again Tuesday October 17th.
Your Servant
Matt Paterson
PRIMARY MUSICAL PERFORMANCE
The end of year performance will be held here at MNCC on Thursday December 7th.
The Primary classes will each perform the item they are preparing.
There will be two performances, to allow parents and guests to see the show.
There will be a meal in between the performances for the community.
We have decided to plan for the next senior musical to be performed next year, which will be at the Northern Festival
Centre.
PAGEANT
The Port Pirie Twilight Christmas Pageant will be held on Saturday December 2nd.
Last year a group of our super keen parents organised a boat to be set up as a float with the theme “Noah’s Ark”
It was such a success they would like to do it again, only even better!
Kerry Stephens, Katie Evans and their families were key organisers last year, and would like to again make it happen!
Please contact the Front Office if you would like to be involved in the organisation of our float.

Year 6 BBQ
Last Friday the Year 6 class organized
Chapel. The theme for the week’s daily
devotions was the Fruits of the Spirit. The
year 6 students learnt a new song called,
Joy in the Holy Ghost, and taught it to the
junior and primary school. They also
prepared short 30 second skits, each one
displaying one of the Fruits of the Spirit. For
lunch that day the Year 6’s prepared home
made hamburgers to the junior and primary
classes. We would like to thank both Mr and
Mrs May for giving up their Friday afternoon
to organize their BBQ. Thank you.
