Early Morning Drop Offs

A reminder to parents that our first duty of supervision each morning is at 8.30am. This is the earliest students should be arriving at school. Please be aware that if you drop your child at school earlier than this time, they are unsupervised and sitting in very cold temperatures.

Sickness

There has been a large number of students who have fallen sick recently with gastro and influenza. The only way we can control the spread of these bugs is by trying to make sure that students who are unwell, do not attend school. If your child complains of feeling ill, please keep them home to try and avoid spreading these bugs further. Please note the recommended 48 hour exclusion for students from school and child care centres following a bout of viral gastroenteritis.

Satisfaction Surveys of Parents

Satisfaction surveys of parents, students and staff will be conducted on behalf of all Catholic schools in the Diocese this term. The surveys are designed to gather feedback from parents, staff and students about our school and will be used to inform school improvement. Responses are confidential and individuals cannot be identified.

The surveys were launched via email on Monday 12th August and close on Friday 23rd August 2019 using the email addresses supplied to the school. If you did not receive an email with a link to the survey on the 12th August, you can access and complete the survey at the following link.
