St. Vinnies Winter Appeal - Pyjama Day

 As part of the Vinnies Winter Appeal, students are invited to wear their pyjamas tomorrow, Friday 21st August and bring a gold coin donation to support those in need this winter.

Together we can make a difference! ❄️

Please ensure all pyjamas are appropriate for school and paired with safe, enclosed footwear for the classroom and playground. 

nForma App

We would like to remind you that the nForma for Parents app will be decommissioned at the end of this month.

From 1st September, all parents and users will need to access the new app through the current nForma Connect app.

Many parents have already downloaded and transitioned to the new app. However, if you still are using the old nForma for Parents app, we kindly ask that you download nForma Connect as soon as possible to ensure uninterrupted access. They have been prompted to upgrade/update via the old app.

For further information and guidance on downloading and using the new app, please refer to our FAQ page:

School Fees

This is just a reminder that term 3 instalment is now overdue, unless you are on a payment plan. If you are experiencing any difficulties with making any of these payments, please make sure that you contact me on principal@saclaytonsth.catholic.edu.au to organise a time to discuss. 

Book Week - 22 - 28 August

On Friday 28th August, at Assembly, our school will come together to celebrate Book Week.

All students are invited to dress up as their favourite book character or wear a costume inspired by this year's theme. This year's theme, 'A Symphony of Stories', celebrates the way diverse characters, ideas, and words come together just like the instruments in an orchestra to create rich and memorable stories.  

Art Show

Preparations for this year's Art Show are well underway, with Mrs Santoro already hard at work bringing together what promises to be a wonderful celebration of creativity at St Andrew's. 

Be sure to save the date: Tuesday 1st September as we come together to celebrate the incredible artistic talents of our students. We can't wait to share it with our community.
