Moving Up Day!

All the students had a fabulous day yesterday moving up to their new classroom with their new teacher for 2022. 

School Photos

Our school photos from MSP should arrive on Thursday this week.  These will be sent home with the students at the end of the day. 

School Reports

Please note that if your child is not moving on to a catholic school in 2022 you will no longer be able to access their school reports in Compass after December 15th.  As we do not print reports anymore, we recommend that you download all of your child's school reports to your own device for safe keeping. Reports will be open for viewing this Friday. 

Year 6

Parents and carers of Year 6 students are requested to make payments via Qkr! by Friday for the Big Day Out and as soon as possible for the Graduation Dinner as these are now overdue.  

Swimming - Please ensure all swimming and bus money has been paid.

Swimming will be on again tomorrow. Students will need their swimming costumes, thongs and rashies at lunchtime and put their sunscreen on as well. They will also need a towel. Please make sure all items of clothing and swimming gear are clearly marked with your child's name to enable return if items are mixed up when changing.  

School Fees were due on 02 December, 2021.

Thank you to all the families who have paid their school fees; your prompt payment is very much appreciated. 

Compass is your one stop shop so please use it for the following applications;

• Explain absences within 7 days - this is a legal requirement
• Update all contact details: address, phone numbers, email addresses
• Find your newsletter and newsfeed items

Even though we can not have visitors past the gate, we are here to help.

• If you need uniform items, please pay for them via Qkr (quicker) and send us an email detailing the item/s and sizes you have ordered.   We will send the items home with your child.
• If you need to collect your child early, please phone us when you reach the gate and we will collect your child from class and sign them out on Compass for you.

10c Bottle, Can and Juice Box Donation Drive

Thank you for another generous donation drive last Wednesday! Last week's efforts raised $35.50, bringing out total fundraising amount to $61.50 so far - what a great effort! We also have our collection bin on the playground for any empty water bottles and juice poppers. As you prepare your donations for this week, please check to ensure that the bottles have the 10c label which ensures that they are eligible for collection. Unfortunately, 2L and 3L milk bottles are not eligible. 

Don't forget, Sports Day = Donation Day!
