Update on Out of School Hours Care for 2025:

Dear families,

I am excited to announce that in April, 2025 our school OSHC will be transferred to MACSEYE. MACSEYE is an initiative from Melbourne Archdiocese Catholic Schools which targets Early Years Education. Hopefully YLV will continue with us in Term 1 of 2025, but I am currently working out transition processes. There will be more information in Term 1 next year. I am hoping we will finally get a high quality service that our school deserves. 

 

Flexible School Uniform 2025:

In 2025 the school will be adopting a more flexible uniform approach. There are some guidelines and they are outlined below:

  • Students can wear which ever uniform they like on any-day of the week (students can wear sports uniform 5 days a week if they please).
  • Sports uniform is to be worn with WHITE SOCKS.
  • Girls and Boys can wear the polo / pants or shorts combination (must wear sports uniform on sports days). Polo / pants or shorts combo must be worn with BLUE SOCKS. 
  • Red jumper or Blue Zip up fleece are the only jumper options (apart from Year 6 Jumper)
  • There is to be no non-school uniform worn (different jumpers, socks, shorts).
  • Girls can continue to wear the dress or tunic options.
  • Runners can be worn at all times with any uniform. 
  • On School Photo Days all students will wear Full Sports Uniform.  

Return to school in 2025:

The students will return to school on Wednesday 29th of January, 2025. There will be no specialist subjects taught in the first week. 

 

Fees and Levies for 2025:

Please keep an eye out for information regarding 2025 school fees and levies. The eldest child of each family has been sent home with this information.

 

Thank you and God Bless
