Parents and Friends
Dear families,
It has been a busy few weeks, hope all the children have settled into new routines for Term One.
The Hello Night tonight is a great chance to get together as a school community, it will be wonderful to look through classrooms and see the spaces the children are learning in.
Foundation children and families are encouraged to attend the Foundation Students Catch Up next Wednesday, 26th February from 9.30am at the All Abilities Playground. This is a chance for children to build on the friendships they are building at school.
Feel free to contact us via email parentsandfriends@sbshepparton.catholic.edu.au anytime with any questions or suggestions.

Business interest
Do you own/run a business, or know of a business, that may be interested in being involved in supporting the school community through fundraisers, sponsorship, in-kind support or at events?
