πππ§‘Year 6 Shirts 2026ππ𧑠Today, St Nicholas of Myra Year 6 students proudly received their Year 6 shirts. More than just a shirt, it is a symbol of their student leadership and the responsibility they carry in their final year of primary school. As the senior students of our school, Year 6 are called to lead in the way of Jesus, showing kindness, service, humility and respect to all. We look forward to seeing them be positive role models, living out our Gospel values and supporting our school community throughout the year. The Year 6 students would also like to extend their sincere thanks to Mrs Shirvington for her exceptional organisation in ensuring the Year 6 shirts were ready so early in the year.
