Happy end of Semester 1 families and welcome to our winter holidays!
Thank you to all our families and friends who continued to work with us in partnership to make Fatima the place to be! Your positive contribitions are so important to us.
Read below for some important information as we finish up for the term.
FAREWELL
Today we say farewell and best wishes to Amy Janssen, a much loved staff member. We hope the next stage in career is as fulfilling as her time with us at Fatima.
We also see Mrs Olivia Catalani head on maternity leave who will be welcoming her first child in August. Sending lots of love to Olivia and Simon during this special time.
NAPLAN
FYI NAPLAN 2023 reporting packages will be distributed to schools in the week commencing Monday 17 July. We will communicate once we have recieved them and are ready to distribute.
PRODUCTION
Term 3 will be filled with much excitement, song, music, dance and theatrical skills! We are thrilled to announce that the students will be involved in preparing for our very own, Our Lady of Fatima Production, 2023. This will be a whole school Production and we aim to have every student involved in this process. The show is called “When I Grown Up”, with a focus on how everyone is unique and that we all discover our strengths at different times in our lives.
If there are any parents/carers who wish to be involved in the production preparations please email Mrs.K, our Performing Arts teacher at akostopoulos@fatimarosebud.catholic.edu.au
