Staffing

We have appointed Mrs Katrina McCumstie to the role of Student Support Teacher, following Julie van Dorst's retirement. Katrina has a background in Special Education and has been working closely with Julie on the vast array of tasks involved in this role. Katrina will continue working in Yr 1 every Monday, Tuesday and second Wednesday.

Year One Teacher- Mrs Sarah-Jane Canham will be joining Katrina, Brittany and Caitlin in Yr 1 on the days Katrina is out of class working in her role as SST.  Sarah-Jane is very excited to be joining the Yr 1 team.

Year Two- As Mrs Fletcher awaits the final weeks before the birth of her first baby she and Miss Murphy are working hard to touch base with parents and have everything in place in Yr 2 for when Sarah leaves. Mrs Katrina Duncan has kindly agreed to work in Yr 2 for the remainder of the year. She will commence before Sarah leaves so the three teachers will have a week together to make the transition very smooth.

Compass

As of the start of this Term, the Catholic Schools Office has introduced a new office computer system that is being rolled out across the Diocese, called COMPASS.  At the moment we are only using it for roll marking and absentee messages. In the near future it will replace our entire school data base and it will include a Parent Portal where you will be able to access lots of information such as notes, calendars etc.

In the meantime, the system automatically sends out an SMS AND an email to notify you if your child is not at school. You can no longer reply by text/SMS. You must either ring the office with an explanation of your child being absent or use the email link (found in the email and SMS) to reply. You do not need to reply to both the text and the email, one or the other is sufficient.

Reminders will be sent each week for unexplained absences. 

Thank you for your patience while the new system is implemented.
