From the Principal's Desk

Dear Parents,

As we head into the last week of a busy and very special term for me personally, there is still so much happening. I hope you can join me for a special paraliturgy and afternoon tea before school pick up on Thursday. I look forward to catching up with everyone over the coming days to thank you all personally, for the important part you have played in my time at St Bernard’s and my career. We also have some very important events coming up as we share your child’s learning journey with you.

Principal Appointment Process

The process of appointing the next Principal of our school continues. The actual process has a number of very important steps to ensure that best person to lead our community into the future is found. Once the successful candidate is appointed they will begin as soon as possible, however, given the requirements of senior leaders moving between schools, they may not be able to begin at the start of the term. The new Principal and their start date will be announced in due course but rest assured the school will be in great hands as Ms Franca and Mr Reed continue to lead with dedication and professionalism.

Report Feedback Session

Next Tuesday 1st July our Report Feedback sessions are being held from 1:30pm-6:30pm. Students finish at 1pm on this day. This is an opportunity for parents to meet with their child’s teachers (both classroom and specialist staff) to discuss information contained in the report which will be sent home on Thursday. Attendance is not compulsory.
