Principal's Update 

Dear Parents and Carers,

Winter is well and truly here and we hope you have all coped with the cold and blustery conditions in recent weeks. On these days, as we keep warm in our beautiful homes and eat hot, home cooked meals, it is a fitting time to pray for those who are less fortunate and struggling with the Winter weather; 

Lord, 

Your door is always open to us.

Help us to keep our doors open to all who struggle with poverty and homelessness.

Give us open hearts to recognize our sisters and brothers in need, particularly during these cold Winter months.

Fill us with the will to work in our community and country towards ending the pain and waste that poverty and homelessness create.

We ask this through Jesus, who emptied himself of all, but love.

Amen.

Eucharist and Confirmation Presentation Masses

Congratulations to all the children and families who attended the first of the Eucharist and Confirmation Presentation Masses on the weekend. We look forward to supporting the children and walking with them as they prepare for this very important time in their lifelong faith journey. The Dismissal Masses commence this weekend and sacramental families are invited to attend either the 6.00 pm mass on Saturday or the 11:00 am mass on Sunday. We thank the staff who are supporting the students through their attendance at the masses and guidance with the program.

Working with Children Checks

With our Prep-2 swimming program commencing next week, we ask for parents to assist staff with getting the children changed at the end of lessons. Please note that all volunteers in schools require a WWCC.

You can apply online at http://www.workingwithchildren.vic.gov.au/utility/home/

Once you have obtained your WWCC please present it to the office so we can keep a copy on file.

Keeping our children safe is our number one priority and of the utmost importance. However, having our wonderful parent community involved in the life of the school is also extremely important, so I urge as many parents as possible to obtain a WWCC and present it to the office at your earliest convenience. 

Car Park Loop

To assist with the smooth flow of traffic through the car park loop after school, we kindly ask that if you need to get out the car to help your child/children please park and walk over to collect them from the group. 

.

A reminder that this Friday 2nd August is a pupil free day. Enjoy the rest of your week.
