Thank you to those parents who have provided some really positive feedback on the new Parent Engagement Platform. We will continue to add to it as we receive that feedback. You will notice on the side bar of the eNewsletter we have added a tab – ‘School Polices’ as parents have asked where to find them. We have only put the relevant ones for parents but if there is something not there that you think should be added please just email me and we can upload it if needs be.

On the Schools Policies Page, we have the updated version of our Federated Schools Privacy Policy and Standard Collection Notice. These have recently been updated to reflect the use of digital data and to cover the use and/or disclosure of personal information in relation to the Catholic Education Melbourne School Improvement Surveys (CEMSIS).

We have begun to use the App and will increase the use in coming weeks so I urge all parents to download it. You will receive notification from us when the eNewsletter is published and when other important items or events need to be communicated.

If you haven’t yet I ask that all staff download the app for St Catherine’s - http://www.schoolzine.com/szapp  - all the instructions can be found here or just go to the app store / google playstore and search SZapp then download and pick region and type in school name.
