Dear Families,
Thank you to the families who attended our cultural evening. It was lovely to see our families socialising together and enjoying each other's company.
The fourth term is always busy with extra activities, swimming, and changes to routine. Each child responds differently to change, but generally speaking, it can lead to unsettlement. We will continue to set high expectations for behaviour, focus on learning and keep routine as much as possible. I ask that you support us with this, with early nights and regular routines. Never underestimate the power of sitting together for an evening meal and a consistent bedtime. Together, we will finish a great year positively and successfully.
Thank you for your continued support.
Grow in the Likeness of God Award.
This week's recipients are
Riley - 6TMC
Riley always uses his manners, speaks respectfully and does his best, whether in class or on the sports field. Thank you for being an excellent Year 6 Leader.
Josh - 2MLE
Josh greets the staff and his friends with a smile and a great attitude every day. Thank you for being such a positive person in our school community.

As per the email sent on Monday 7th October:
The uniform shop will cease onsite trading on 31st October.

Complete order.
Hats can still be purchased from the school office, and we will have a complete kit to support ordering.
Change in School Calendar (REPEAT)
In preparation for 2025 and Magnify Sandhurst, our Staff Professional Learning Day (Pupil Free Day) which was scheduled for Monday 4th November has now been rescheduled to Thursday 19th December. Students will now finish the 2024 school year on Wednesday 18th December at 3:20 pm.
Mobile Phones / Smart Watches (REPEAT)
Please refer to our Mobile Phone and Smart Watch policy. These devices are not to be used at school. If your child needs a device for safe passage to and from school, it must stay in the child's bag. This includes smartwatches, as they are a distraction to learning for the student and others. St Therese's takes no responsibility for the device if it is lost or damaged; the responsibility lies with the family.
Family Maths Challenge
This term, our Family Challenge shifts to Mathematics. Each fortnight, a new Maths Challenge will be posted in our Newsletter and printed for home.
