Final Thanks
Thank you for your support and patience throughout the year. Many of you took the time to send an email or mention just how much you appreciated all of the work teachers were doing. These small acts of kindness make a huge difference and often seemed to arrive when we needed them the most. Thank you for sharing in and supporting your children’s learning, particularly by attending our learning conferences and information workshops. To all parents, staff and students who are leaving our school at the end of this year, may you always be safe and share happiness in your new adventures. We wish you all a lovely, restful Christmas and New Year! We look forward to connecting with you in 2025.
To everyone associated with St Edward's School, especially our Parish Administrator Fr Roel Llave and our dedicated P and F committee, we thank you for your generous time, enthusiastic support and continued interest in the life of the school and, in particular, the children in our care.
Peace & Best Wishes.
Keep smiling and take care,
Alison Hatton
(Principal)
