Kindergarten enrolments for 2022 are now open. If you would like an enrolment package, please contact the school office.
If you have already received an enrolment package for your Kindergarten 2022 child, please complete the form and return it to the school office as soon as possible so your enrolment interview can be scheduled.
Please note, that until enrolment paperwork is received at the school office, we can not hold places for Kindergarten 2022. Therefore, if you currently have a child at St Mary's and have a younger sibling starting Kinder next year, please let the school office know as soon as possible.

Clothing Pool
With the latest COVID restrictions we are unable to open the Clothing Pool. Please contact the school office on 6772 4441 or smaadmin@arm.catholic.edu.au if there are uniform items you require from the Clothing Pool and we will check availability for you.
Please make sure that you check and label or re-label clothing items, including trackpants, beanies, gloves etc so we can return items to their owners. Also please remember to rename items purchased from the Clothing Pool - if the previous owner's name is still on it, we will send it home with them!
We continue to find many items of unlabelled uniforms, often brand new, in our lost property baskets. It is impossible to return these items to students and unnamed items are donated to the clothing pool.
Annual School Satisfaction Survey
An annual satisfaction survey of parents, students and staff will be conducted on behalf of all Catholic schools in the Diocese this term. The surveys are designed to gather feedback from parents, staff and students about our school and will be used to inform school improvement. Responses are confidential and individuals can not be identified.
The surveys will be launched via email on Monday 23 August 2021 using the email addresses supplied to the school. If you do not receive an email with a link to the survey, you can access and complete the survey at the following link. https://www.research.net/r/StMarysArmidalePARENT2021
If there are any delays in the launch of the survey due to the current situation, we will notify families via Compass. |
