From Mrs Scott's Desk

Dear Parents and Carers,

We have now reached the end of Week 7 which is hard to believe. The humidity is something we are all not used to and we have noticed how tired the students have been at the end of the day.

As the newsletter went out last week we are just sending through important reminders and dates until the Week 9 newsletter, which will be our last newsletter for the year. 

A major change of dates/events from last week's newsletter is the Behaviour Bash. Last week it was advertised as Friday 6th December from 11.30 -3pm at the Junee Recreation and Aquatic Centre. It is now WEDNESDAY 4TH DECEMBER at 11.30 -3pm. Details went home on Compass yesterday and permissions will need to be completed.

Our final assembly for the year will be next Friday 6th December from 9-10am in the hall as advertised in last weeks newsletter. 

Please be sure to read all the information provided as there are lots of events leading up to the close of the 2024 school year.

Lost Property

We have a considerable amount of lost property that has been left at the school of late. There are plenty of sports jackets, drink bottles and other items of clothing. We ask that you please label your child’s uniform and other items they bring to school so if left behind they can be returned to them. Please ensure their name is on the clothing not the previous owner.

Year 6 Graduation Mass and Dinner

Year 6 will have their Graduation Mass on Monday 9th December at 6pm in the church. This will be followed by dinner at the Commercial Hotel. Kinder students are invited to attend this special mass for their buddies as they will form a special part of this liturgy. More information will be communicated to the families.

Semester 2 Reports

Semester 2 Reports will be sent home on Thursday 12th December. If you wish to discuss your child's report with the class teacher please make an appointment to do so before school concludes on Wednesday 18th December.

Thank You Mrs Sweeney

Last Friday was the final Tuck Shop day of 2024. It was also the last day for our amazing volunteer, Mrs Annette Sweeney, who came out of Tuck Shop retirement to ensure our students had access to lunch orders and recess treats every Friday. Thank you for your dedication, commitment and smooth operation - we hope you get to put your feet up! Three cheers also to Mrs Sweeney's band of helpers throughout the year.

Next year we welcome Mrs Melissa Skewes and her team to our Tuck Shop. Ordering information will be communicated early in Term 1, 2025.

Library Books

A reminder that all library books must be returned as soon as possible so we can organise our library for 2025.

No need for worries or woes if books are missing, please reach out to Mrs Maloney and a plan will be hatched! 

2025 Deb Ball: March 2025

St Joseph’s Debutante Ball is the only Debutante Ball hosted in Junee. We just hosted the 2024 Debutante Ball on the 2nd November with 11 debutantes and it was a huge success.

Expressions of interest are now being raised for any young lady wishing to make her Debut in March 2025. They must be in Year 12 or equivalent age. If you know of any young ladies wishing to make their debut next year please register your interest with the QR code below.

A Very Special Wiradjuri Sign of the Cross

Have a great weekend everyone.

God Bless
