Pupil Free Day

Monday 16th October will be a Pupil free day for staff to engage in professional development in the areas of first aid and wellbeing.

Friday Afternoon Assembly

Our next assembly will be showcasing both 2MR & 6SH on Friday 15th September. Assembly will take place in the school hall and we invite the parents of 2MR & 6SH to attend.  We will start promptly at 1:45pm.  We are commencing early as we have two classes presenting.

Division Athletics

Congratulations to the students who represented the school competing in the Bendigo Division Athletics Carnival held at the Bendigo Athletics Track on Monday.  Numerous students have progressed to the next stage.

Grade 5 Camp

Today our Grade 5 students headed off to Campaspe Downs Kyneton for camp. We hope they have a fun and educational camp experience and we look forward to them returning safely to school on Friday afternoon.

Prep-2 Swimming Program

The students in our prep and junior classrooms have begun their six day program at Peter Krenz swimming pool.  Parents and carers please note this is a tiring time for our children so please monitor this and let your child’s teacher know if they are struggling.

2024 Students

Planning for the 2024 school year has begun. To assist with this process, if you know your child (in Grade Prep to 5) will be leaving St Kilian’s School at the end of the year, except the graduating Grade 6 class, could you please inform me via email or a letter of your intentions as soon as possible. By doing this, it will assist in organising staffing and class numbers for the 2024 school year. I thank you for your assistance, in advance, for the parents who this applies to.

Sunsmart & Summer Uniform

Term 4 (and Term 1) students are required to wear the St Kilian’s sunhat during recess and lunch, in general any outside activity.  As the weather heats up we will be ensuring the ‘No Hat, No Play’ policy once school returns next term. New hats are available from the uniform shop if a new one is to be purchased. Students also begin the transition into summer uniform.

God Bless
