MINI VINNIES

Thank you to everyone who helped with our fundraising for the Vinnies Christmas Appeal.

The 'Guess how many lollies in Santa's jar' winner was Jayden Moroney with a guess of 187. Altogether, with free dress and the lollie guessing competition the students raised $351.35. What a fantastic effort! Vinnies have thanked the students for their efforts. 

 

OUTSTANDING HOME READERS

Infant’s students are remaindered that all home readers need to be returned to their class teacher by the end of next week (week 9). There are a lot of books outstanding and need to be accounted for by the end of the year so new supplies can be ordered if needed. 

STUDENT DEPARTURE FROM SCHOOL

It is a board of studies requirement that the destination school of all students leaving St Joseph’s school be recorded. If a student does not nominate a school to be enrolled at, it is the Principal's legal obligation to notify the appropriate authorities that the student school destination is unknown .
