From the Principal's Desk

Dear Parents,

The cold weather has certainly hit this week, just in time for the holidays.

It has been a long eleven week term, and so much has happened. It is no wonder everyone is feeling a little tired.

This term we celebrated the Sacrament of Confirmation, School tours, Information sessions and Taste of School sessions for prospective families, our Foundation and Year 3/4 students participated in their camp experience, there were incursions and excursions to support learning and our Mother’s and Special persons celebrations were a huge success.

Thank you to everyone in our school, staff, students and parents who have contributed to the success of all these events. I hope you manage to rest and relax and enjoy some time away from routines and the busyness of school.
