MESSAGE FROM THE LEADERSHIP TEAM

Thank you to everyone who joined us for our Primary Mother’s Day Breakfast and Year 8 Morning Tea celebrations this week. It was a lovely opportunity to spend time with the incredible women in our families, and we were so pleased to see such a high turnout at both events. As the Year 1Blue class reminded us at our Primary Assembly, there are many things we count on our mums for so make sure to spoil the mums in your life this weekend.

Looking ahead, we invite all Year 10 parents to attend our upcoming Parent Information Evening, where we’ll share key details about subject selection and pathways, as we help students prepare for their senior years. For many parents, this process can be quite new compared to when we went to school so I do encourage you to make time for this event.

We’re also excited to begin our Sacramental Program this term. We look forward to journeying with our students and families as they take these significant steps in their faith, starting with the Year 3 classes who will attend their Reconciliation Retreat next week.

Please remember to take care when parking around the Primary campus. It is important to be mindful of our neighbour's driveways and avoid parking where you may block footpaths. We want to ensure the safety of everyone as parents are doing the daily drop offs and pick ups. Particularly if you have older children, we suggest you arrive a little later after the bell as the traffic does clear quickly.

Mrs Woodgate returns next week, and we can't wait to hear about the incredible time she has had on her Roman adventure!

We are still on the lookout for a rental for a new staff member and her family.  Please contact our Admin if you know of any family properties available, thank you.
