Transition back to school

It was great to see students and staff back onsite at school this week. We are looking forward to finally seeing our years 3 & 4 students on Tuesday. There were so many smiles on the faces of students (and parents) as they happily ran through the school gates.

For some students, they may find the transition back to school a little bit tricky. MACS (Melbourne Archdiocese Catholic Schools) has provided some resources to support parents.

The following measures are in place at our school to keep everyone safe.
