Mr Butts' Announcements

Attendance is Important!

Each afternoon we have many students leave early for a variety of different reasons. Of course there will be times when a child is required to leave early, but I ask all parents and carers to be mindful of this. Please only pick up your child early if it is absolutely necessary. 

Mother's Day Mass

Our Mother's Day mass is taking place on Friday at 9:45am in the Marian Centre. It's a;ways a beautiful liturgy and  all mother's and special mother figures are welcome to attend.

Mother's Day Stall

Thank you to our wonderful P&F for organising today's Mother's Day stall.  There were lots of fantastic gifts and I can assure you all mum's are in for a special treat on Sunday!

Cross Country Success!

Congratulations to the 12 students who were successful in making it through to the regional event in coming weeks. A special mention goes to Annabelle Quinlan who was the first St Mary's student in recent memory to win the girls blue event!

Founder's Day

Well done to the Gr 6 student leaders who led the activities on Friday for Founder's Day. It was a great way to celebrate Catholic Education Week and learn about the history of St Mary's!

Notre Dame Enrolments

Notre Dame College 2025 Applications for Enrolment are now open and close on Friday 17th May.

Car Parking

For safety reasons, we are asking all parents and carer's to please park in designated areas in our car parks when picking up and dropping off children.  Please note the Marian Centre and Hall St pick up roundabouts are quiet at the moment and are a very easy and safe way to 

pick up and drop off.

Before School Supervision

Please note that  all students that arrive at school prior to 8:30am must fill out an application that is explained the letter below.  I appreciate everyone's understanding and cooperation regarding this.

Jay has matured significantly recently and is willing to take risks in the classroom. Teachers have noted he is considerate and takes interest of other students and adults alike. Thank you for being such a good role model Jay!

6th May Willow Radevski

Willow is an outstanding student in many ways.  She is an excellent role model to those around her and is displaying genuine leadership qualities. Willow recent completed a magnificent drawing of a service woman for an Anzac Day art activity which is on display in my office.  Thank you for being such a wonderful student Willow!
