From the Principal
Dear families,
As we enter the final few weeks of term one, I would like to congratulate all students on the wonderful start they have made to the academic year. I would like to highlight the brilliant work of our Year 3 and Year 5 students who have recently been sitting the NAPLAN assessments. We are very proud of all of you for your efforts.
Today our school will be represented by Mrs Janky, Mrs Munro and five school leaders at the Catholic Education Week Mass at St Patrick's cathedral. A wonderful celebration of all things Catholic Education. We hope the students and staff enjoy the experience.
Just a reminder to families that Term 1 finishes on Friday, April 4th and Term 2 will being on Tuesday, 22nd of April. Please also note that the school will be closed on Friday 25th of April for the ANZAC Day Public Holiday
