Prime Minister's Spelling Bee: Congratulations to Year 4 students Chris and Jack for advancing to the State Finals! This is an extraordinary achievement, and the whole school community wishes them the very best of luck.
School Policies: Please remember to check the school website regularly, as we continuously update and publish key MACS and St Louis policies.
Playgrounds after school: Our playgrounds are closed before and after school as there is no teacher supervision at this time. Teachers leaving duty after school will ask you to vacate the playgrounds, and we would appreciate your cooperation with this.
