Dear Parents,

I hope the long weekend afforded you some time to relax and spend with family or friends. The freezing, wet weather ensured we spent time inside. However communities in drought would be grateful for the rain.

Year 3 /4 Reconciliation

Congratulations to our year 3/4 students on their First Reconcilation, they were well prepared, reverent and we are very proud of them.

Thanks to Ms Lesa our RE Leader and the 3/4 teachers Ms Tess, Ms Prue and Ms Megan for their help in preparing the students and to Fr Leo and Fr George for celebrating the Mass.

Year 3 /4 Camp

The Year 3/4 classes have just returned from their Camp at 'Weekaway' in Benloch.

It has been a wonderful experience to improve their independence and confidence. We will have some more photos to share on the Facebook /Instagram pages and in the newsletter next week.

Many thanks to Ms Tess, Ms Lesa and Ms Prue for their organisation and preparation for camp and to Mr Reed for accompanying the students to Benloch. We are very lucky that our teachers, both those who attend camp and those who cover duties etc whilst other staff are away, value the Camp Program and support it.

The Resilience Project Parent Information Session

Last week you would have received an invitation to a parent information session about ‘The Resilience Project’. We know that the mental health and wellbeing of children is very topical at the moment and also that it is of concern for all parents. We hope as many parents as possible can attend as we share more information about this valuable program running at our school.

Thursday 19th June, 9.00 - 9.45am

Please email schooladmin@stbernardscoburg.catholic.edu.au if you are able to attend.
