Dear Parents and Families,

WELCOME BACK

This week, we enjoyed having each of our classes onsite at various times and it was great to see the children enjoying each other’s company. We look forward to everyone returning on October 26th, 2021.

With everyone returning onsite on October 26th, the decision has been made not to go ahead with our school closure day on Monday, November 1st 2021 i.e.Cup Eve.

Melbourne Cup Day, however, still remains a public holiday. 

SCHOOL PHOTOS

We have had a number of questions regarding school photos. At present, we cannot proceed with school photos and will keep you informed if restrictions change prior to the end of term.

FACE MASKS

We remind families that students in Years Three to Year Six are required to wear a face mask unless an exception applies. There are a number of lawful and medical reasons for an exception. Please notify the school if an exception applies for your child/children. Thank you.

Likewise, adults needing to visit reception are required to wear a face mask.

PICK UP & DROP OFF

As you are aware students are asked to enter the school grounds via the Gumnuts or Raglan st gates. If your child is a little anxious in the morning, school staff will be available at the gates to assist. 

A reminder that students need to be wearing their summer uniform unless they have been informed of sports days by their teacher. 

Also, we do remind families that they need to register their children for onsite learning if they fall into one of the appropriate categories that are listed on the ONsite Intentions form. It is most important that you register so that appropriate staffing can be organised for the day. Thank you.

SACRAMENTAL PROGRAM

Please know that  First Eucahrist workshops have been postponed. Children registered to participate in the sacramental program should have received details from Jenny Fitzgerald.

Commitment Masses for children intending to receive their First Eucharist are currently taking place. Please ring Jenny or the presbytery for details.

We wish all families a lovely weekend and look forward to seeing all our children onsite soon.
