Principal's Message

Lord God,

Thank you to Joe for the extraordinary love, commitment 

he has given Galilee.

Thank you for the way he has served us and given out so much 

to improve and keep our school safe and clean.

We pray that he would go on to find new treasures each day, 

and that the blessing of Christ would be upon all that he does, forevermore.

Amen.

Retirement of Mr Randich  

Mr Randich has been the school cleaner at Galilee for the past 18 years. He will retire from his position at the end of this term. A celebration service for his generous service will take place in week 10. 

We thank Joe for everything that he has done for our school and wish him the very best as he begins a new phase in his life.

A tribute from our students, to our cleaner Joe Randich who has been at the school for 25 years! Thank you for all the things you do!

Tell Them From Me - Invitation for parents and carers to complete survey

Sydney Catholic Schools (SCS) is encouraging all families to contribute to this year’s “Tell Them From Me” (TTFM) online surveys for families.

SCS Executive Director, Mr Tony Farley, is asking all Galilee families and staff members to complete this year’s TTFM surveys which are aimed at gathering “perception” and “planning” data for our school system.

Information collected in the Galilee TTFM survey data “set” will be used for our school’s future planning. Students in Years 4 to 6 classes are also being asked to complete the TTFM survey instrument for students. If you do not wish your child to complete the survey please email: info@galileebondi.catholic.edu.au

The survey “window” is now open (until Friday 18 June) and parents/carers can use the link below to access the survey. Thank you very much in anticipation of completing the TTFM survey. TTFM link is below. 

Parent Volunteers

Do you want to help out with excursions, walk-a-thon, reading in the classroom, carnivals, gala days and library?

ALL volunteers need to do the following:

Gain a Working With Children Check (WWCC). To do this you need to fill in the online form from Roads and Maritime Services and take it to their office. This is free of charge for volunteers.

https://www.service.nsw.gov.au/transaction/apply-working-children-check

Once you have a WWCC number, complete the online Sydney Catholic Schools registration process via SCS Online Induction for Volunteers https://scschildsafecommunities.wordpress.com/volunteers-2/  

Then, forward approval from SCS to info@galileebondi.catholic.edu.au

A “Safe School Expectations” Form is available at the office for you to sign and return.

If you already have a WWCC number you don’t need to get another one, however the SCS online induction must be completed.

Please LABEL your child’s belongings! Please ensure that every item of your child's clothing, lunch boxes and drink bottles have a CLEARLY MARKED NAMED LABEL. It is easy to return items that are clearly marked with a child’s name.

Regards
