Dear Parents and Carers

 

Easter Raffle

You will find details of our wonderful Easter Raffle in the Parents' Association page of this newsletter. I encourage all families to support this fundraiser. The prizes are on display in the office

 

Naplan

This week the Yr.3 and 5 students have commenced their Naplan testing. For some students this can be stressful.  The staff are amazing at ensuring the children feel comfortable in completing the variety assessment tasks.

On Wednesday the students completed the writing task and today  the reading assessment task.  On Monday and Tuesday of next week they will complete the next two assessments.  Parents will be provided with the results sometime during Term 2.

 

Anointing Mass

Tomorrow the Anointing Mass for the parish will be held in the church followed by lunch in the hall. This means that assembly will be changed from this week to next week. our students will have a buddies session this week. Thank you for your understanding.

 

Office staff

There will be a slight change to the office arrangements for  the remainder of the year.  Chris Comand will now be in on a Thursday and Amanda will be working Monday, Tuesday and Wednesdays.
