Principal's Report

Dear families,

It has been a wonderful start to Term 1 and I have thoroughly enjoyed meeting lots of the students and families today. This will be a short report for this newsletter.

I sincerely thank the staff, leadership (as well as Jo and Paul) for their thorough handovers and support of myself. In 2026, we have welcomed two additional new staff; Mrs Kris Fellows and Ms Danielle Crane into our team. Both have settled in well and are a great fit on our staff.

In 2026, we have a new leadership team with Mandy Antoniadis and Shelley DeAraugo as Co-Deputy Principal’s and Sam Doyle as our new Catholic Identity Leader.

A few events coming up are;

• Beginning of Year School Mass will be held next Wednesday 4th February in the Church.
• Welcome Evening has yet to be scheduled but will be organised to be held in the next 4-5 weeks.
• Learning Conversations will be taking place in Week 3 (Tues 10th & Wed 11th February) with our PAM booking system now open.
• School Swimming Carnival for Year 3-6 (Wednesday 11th February) is also coming up with the consent and medical details ready to be completed on PAM
• Shrove Tuesday will be Tuesday 17th of February with more information to come.

• Foundation students will have their rest day each Wednesday until Week 7.

   

I hope that you all have a great weekend and keep cool. Please do not hesitate to contact me via email if you have any questions.

Thank you all for the support in my first week at Holy Rosary.

Vin Ryan

Principal
