St James Dads Movie Night - IS BACK BABY !

Ladies & Gentlemen

A long long time ago….  you signed up for our inaugural St James Dads Movie Night. Covid reared its head and thwarted us. We rebooted, only to have our hopes dashed once again.

This time we are back and we mean Business…..!

Space Jam has sadly come and gone, but in its place we now have:

 

The Boss Baby: Family Business | Movies | Palace Cinemas

 

Venue: Dendy Palace Cinema,26 Church St, Brighton

Date: Friday 26th November, just as this movie hits the big screen.

Start time: TBC the week of the show, but likely to commence at 6.00pm or 6.30pm.

 

The venue can only allow admission to those that are vaccinated against Covid-19 or hold an exemption. Evidence will be required upon entry. (This is not applicable to guests under the age of 16).

 

If you no longer wish to attend due to the change of movie, the date, Covid restrictions etc, please email me directly by the 12th November so I can request a credit for you from Palace Cinemas.

 

I know the kids were really looking forward to going to the cinema together and after the year they have had, I am sure they will be busting to finally get the opportunity !

 

Kind regards

2022 STJPA - We need your help!

We need your help as a community to fill a variety of roles for our STJPA for 2022. We are so looking forward to getting back to normal and hosting events, but like all things, it takes a village. At this stage we are looking for volunteers for the following roles:

  • Presidents (co chairs)
  • Communication (previously secretary)
  • Year level reps for grades 1,2,3,4,5 (teams are welcome)
  • Several events throughout the year as listed. We have now added the names of those who ran the events previously so people know who to contact should they need some guidance. 

As you can see

there are lots of blank spaces. We would like to ensure that we have filled the roles by November 30 which is our final STJPA meeting for the year. In particular, the exec roles, the rep roles and the events for term 1. We urge you to please consider sharing any roles with friends. For the most part, the most important thing is to encourage everyone to get involved. All roles will be supported with a manual that we have created with guidelines and resources. 

We can only make things happen if people put their hands up, and the more hands, the lighter the load! We are so proud of all we have achieved as a team this year, and last, despite the incredible challenges of COVID. 2022 is about bringing the joy back to school!

 

For exec roles, please forward an expression of interest email to Brendan via  bflanagan@stjamesbrighton.catholic.edu.au

 

For rep roles and event coordination, please fill your name in the spreadsheet linked below.
