St Joseph's PS Newsletter

Communication

Communication is vital to maintaining a positive relationship between school, teachers and families. At St Joseph's we are committed to open communication at all times.

 

We ask families to be mindful of teachers personal time when emailing, teachers will respond to emails and phone calls within 24 hours. Communication received after 3.30pm on a Friday will be responded to by Monday afternoon. If your concern is urgent, please call or email Liz. (0409 622 766 or etrewick@sjrochester.catholic.edu.au) 

 

Just a reminder that it is not appropriate to communicate with a staff member on their personal phone.
