School Leaders

Welcome

We were very excited to welcome our new Prep/Foundation children and their families.

Year 6 and Prep Buddies

Beginning of the Year School Mass

This weekend  Saturday 6th February, we celebrate our Beginning of the School Year School and Parish Mass at 6pm. Year 6 leaders will receive their badges and our new Preps and their families will be welcomed into our community. It is a commissioning mass for all children. Unfortunately numbers are still limited due to COVID regulations but we thank you for indicating your intentions for attendance. Looking forward to seeing families celebrating the beginning of a new year. Please wear a mask!

School Sports

Please SAVE THE DATE 


Sunday 28th March


for our Annual School Sports and Family Picnic 

3-7pm.

A great afternoon of competitive and fun sporting activities for children, siblings and parents. Bring along a picnic and join in the fun of our very special community. Don't forget to wear your 'colours' to support your child/children's team!

Prep children will be allocated their team shortly.

Sovereign Hill Camp

Our Year 5/6 camp to  Sovereign Hill is fast approaching on the 17th, 18th & 19th February . It will be slip, slop and slap rather than rugging up this year. However it is Melbourne so raincoats and warm night gear will also be required. We look forward to an exciting academic and social learning experience.

Parent Teacher Chats

Our teachers are always happy to talk to parents about their child. You can email, phone and organize a face to face with teachers if you have any concerns.

If you have important information that you would like to share with your child's new  teacher  please make an appointment.

At the end of Term 1 and Term 3 we hold Parent Teacher chats to keep parents updated in regards to their child's progress. In Term 2 and 4 reports are sent home.

Parent Teacher Interviews will be held on  Tuesday 23rd March from 2:30-8pm. We encourage all parents to attend. A booking system will be set up a few weeks before via School interviews and Skoolbag.

Assemblies

School Assemblies will be held each Friday at 9 am beginning Friday 26th February. Assemblies are led by our Year 6 children. Parents are welcome but we do require you to check in via the office. Any visitor who is on site for longer than 15 minutes MUST record attendance under COVID regulations. We appreciate your support in this safety compliance.

Reconciliation

Our Sacrament of Reconciliation for Year 5 and Year 4 students will be held on Tuesday 30th March. This will include both 2020 students who prepared but were unable to make their Sacrament due to Covid and current Year 4 students. More information to follow.

Holiday Watering

A huge THANK YOU to our volunteer garden watering team that took such fabulous care of our garden spaces over the Christmas break.

Thanks to  the Hansen, Haig, Rodwell, Lander, Kearney and Cresswell families for all their diligence for keeping our grounds well watered . It was lovely to return to school and seeing our plants thriving.
