Dear Parents and Carers

It is hard to believe that we are already halfway through Term One. The weeks have been filled with rich learning, new routines, and many wonderful moments of growth across our classrooms. Students have settled well into the school year, building positive learning habits and connections with their teachers and peers. We thank our families for your ongoing support as we continue to work together to create a strong and successful start to the year for every child.

Foundation 2027 – School Tours

School tours for Foundation 2027 have begun. I have been taking personal tours and it’s fantastic to be able to showcase our beautiful learning spaces and facilities that St Fidelis has to offer.

If you have any friends or family who are interested in a school tour, please let them know that they can either book a tour via our website, contact our office by calling 93833600 or contact me directly: principal@sfmoreland.catholic.edu.au

Sibling Enrolments for 2027

If you have a child starting Foundation in 2027, please submit their enrolment by the end of March. This will help us determine the number of places available for new families.

To secure your child’s place, ensure you complete the enrolment process before the deadline. Enrolment forms are available at the school office or can be downloaded from our website.

Enrolments 2027 - Letterbox Drop

Thank you to our families who have stopped by the school and collected a bundle of flyers to distribute. We are seeking volunteers to help with a letterbox drop to promote our 2027 enrolments. It’s a great opportunity to support our school while getting some fresh air and exercise with your family!

If you are able to assist, please come to the school office to collect a bundle and choose a nearby street or area for distribution. Your support is greatly appreciated. Flyers can be collected from the front office.

Thank you for helping us share the story of our wonderful school community.
