Principal Reflections

Dear Parents and Carers,

Congratulations Lauren

A huge congratulations to Lauren Propsting for receiving the Volunteer Award at the recent Armidale Catholic School award presentation ceremony for Catholic Schools Week! This recognition is incredibly well-deserved and highlights Lauren's outstanding dedication and commitment to our school community. We are so grateful for all of her hard work and selfless contributions. 

Catholic Schools Week Mass

On behalf of the entire school community, we extend our gratitude to the Allan and Hague families for travelling to Armidale to join us for the Catholic Schools Week Mass. Your presence and support at the Mass, celebrated by Bishop Murphy, demonstrated your outstanding commitment to our students and Catholic education. Many thanks again for your support.

St Edward's Chess Carnival

Today, students from McCarthy, St Joseph's West Tamworth and St Nicholas School joined St Edward's students for an afternoon of friendly non-competitive chess. The day began with a welcome and a get-to-know-you activity led by Mr Millman, followed by an acknowledgement and prayer. Games then commenced, and the atmosphere in the hall was one of deep concentration, analysis, and problem solving as the students played opponents from the other Tamworth Schools.

A big thank you to Mr Millman for his organisation of this event, and also to the teachers and support officers who attended with the students from our Tamworth Schools. 

What an excellent way to celebrate our Tamworth Schools during Catholic Schools Week!

Winter Uniform

We advise parents that the official date for changeover from summer to winter uniform is after the June long weekend (Tuesday, 10th June).  However, as the weather has started to turn a little cooler, we are now allowing students to wear either full winter (INCLUDING A TIE) or full summer uniform during this transition period. This, of course, applies to Tuesdays and Thursdays when the school uniform is worn. School uniform items are available for purchase via LOWES in Tamworth. Thank you for your ongoing support in ensuring that your child attends school wearing the correct uniform.

Thanks again for your support,

Keep smiling, 

Alison Hatton
