It’s Week 2, Term 2 is a significant event at PPN. Every day this week our students gather together for a time of worship, reflection and growth under the theme, ‘Building on the Rock.’

I want to publicly thank our chaplaincy team for their prayerful effort in making this week special for our kids, and to our guest speak Pr Matthew Hunter for the time he is giving to our school.

It was recently reflected to me that one reason so many parents like you choose PPN is of events like this. To summarise one parent’s comments, ‘My kids can learn English at any school, but at PPN they learn values.’

What I hear in those words is an echo of our approach to education – preparing the mind for truth, the hands for service and the heart for heaven.

It is my prayer that each of us – student, parent or staff – can continue to grow in these ways.
