Principals Report

Good Afternoon Parents and Carers 

Welcome back to Term 4. It was lovely to see everyone back at school ready for a very productive term ahead. This is a particularly special time for our Year 6s who begin their last term of primary school.

To ensure that your child can be the best they can be with their learning, could I please remind parents to make every effort to schedule appointments out of school hours and be sure your child arrives at school before the bell each day. Being at school, on time each day is the best possible way you can assist your child to be a successful learner. Please contact either myself or your child’s teacher if you are having any concerns with school attendance so we are able to support you where possible. 

Yesterday our final  group of students celebrated the Sacrament of Reconciliation .  I would like to express my thanks to Grade 3 & 4, staff, Meegan Mcinness and Father Michael for the preparation of our students.  Thank you also to all our families for your support  and presence at the celebrations. Our Sacrament of Eucharist and Confirmation will take place Friday 27th of October.

This Friday we will celebrate Odd Sock day. Each year GROW organises a day Australia-wide to raise awareness of the serious issue of mental health.

All of us experience odd days, and that’s okay; the odd socks stand in for those odd days. We encourage all of our school community to wear odd socks on Friday 6th October.

Best wishes to our Year 6 class and staff who are heading off to Canberra on October 17th- 19th. So much planning and preparation has gone into this camp and I know it will be a wonderful learning experience for all involved.

Next week I will be on long service leave until October 25th.  In my absence, if you need anything please contact Mr Ben Griffin.

Take care everyone
