School Closure Day- Tuesday 14 June

Year 5-6 Camp- Wednesday 6- Friday 8 April

This week I will be attending camp with year 5-6 students, Alana Tavcar, Paul Hamiliton and Sue Pattinson. We are looking forward to spending time with students and watching them take on challenges, work as a team and develop independence. I wish to acknowledge and thank the staff attending camp as they have families and commitments they leave behind, in order for our students to  be able to experience camp.

In my absence Mrs Carmel Donlon will be delegated authority. While I will be in touch with school, please contact the school office if you have any queries or concerns.

Parent/Teacher/Student Meetings

Thank you to families for attending these meetings online. Teachers were pleased to meet with families and students to discuss student learning. Parent/Teacher/Student learning will again take place at the end of term 2

OSHClub- Farewell to Sue

It is with great sadness that we farewell Sue from Oshclub. Sue has provided before and after school care for our students and families for  six years. We consider Sue part of our St Catherine’s family as she has cared for our students in the same professional way as our staff. Sue has always worked in collaboration with staff to ensure the highest care and programs were available to our students. We wish Sue the very best for the future and thank her for all the support she has offered our school community. Our school community will formally say farewell to Sue tomorrow morning at 9:00am on the asphalt, just before our Easter Hat Parade.

Oshclub are still finalising Sue’s replacement and will make an announcement to our school community shortly.

Rapid Antigen Test Kits

More test kits will be available for families to pick up from school Monday 4 and Tuesday 5 April from outside the front office.
