Aoife's Message

Good afternoon Holy Cross families,

We have had much excitement at school this week with our Year 1 and Year 2 children going on an excursion to Scienceworks. A few nerves, a lot of giggles and overall joy permeated the school as they prepared to head off. Some of our children also represented Holy Cross at the District Swimming Event.  Check out our Holy Cross happenings page for more details. 

Holy Cross Website 

You will soon see a new look school website. We hope to provide a more streamlined website for current families and any potential future enrolments. During the changeover period you may notice that some links to policies do not work, all policies will be updated across the next four weeks. In the interim, hard copies can be requested at the office. 

Prep 2025

It may be hard to believe that I am writing about 2025 already, however I would really like to plan ahead for our school so that all children benefit. We have already commenced Prep 2025 school tours and will soon put up advertising boards. If you have a child that will be joining us next year please fill out an enrolment form as soon as possible. This will greatly assist us in future planning. Enrolment forms are available at the office

Gis Bus

Please sign our petition to keep a bus service running to Holy Cross. The petition will be in the office until the 8th March.
