From the Assistant Principal

Dear Families,
Welcome back to Term 3. We are looking forward to another exciting term at St Pat's with lots happening.
CHANGES TO TOKEN REWARD SYSTEM:
This term we are changing the way we run our whole school reward system for our Schoolwide Positive Behaviours for Learning. Classes and grades will run their own reward system within their grades.
As a whole school we will be moving to a house colour based system. This is aimed to increase competition between house colours and encourage students to do the right thing on the playground and in the classroom.
When a student receives a token they add the token to the Reward towers located outside 3 Nagle. Our school sports leaders will count these tokens on a regular basis and give prizes to the entire house colour who has the most tokens at the time.
We hope this continues to encourage positive behaviour across the whole school.
MERIT AWARDS
As Mr Darcy mentioned, you will receive an email notification on Compass when your child is going to receive a Class Merit Award at our regular Friday assembly. You are welcome to join us for the assembly to see your child receive their award. Unfortunately, we cannot delay handing out this award if you are unable to attend that week's assembly.
ST PATRICK'S TALENT SHOW
Our Talent Show is coming again this term. At the end of last term you received a Compass notification outlining the audition process and the showcase date.
I have attached this notification again below for your information. We look forward to seeing some of the amazing talent at St Pat's.
