Principal's Report
Lord, help students to find physical, mental, and spiritual rest in you, knowing that you are always by their side, guiding and protecting them.
As they face challenges, fill them with power, love, and self-control. Keep them steady and sure.
Help them not to lose sight of what you have called them to and how you have equipped them.
May they feel secure in your perfect love.
Amen.
Our students have commenced the year with great positivity and eagerness to achieve well in their learning. They have also been making positive attempts to develop and maintain respectful friendships with others. At school, we regularly remind them of our school motto, 'To walk in Peace and Joy' and how they can ensure they contribute to that. While there are moments when mistakes are made, our students do very well in reflecting on how they can do better. The prayer above may provide come comfort for them knowing they are loved by God even when they may be struggling.
Meet & Greet sessions
I hope that you have found the Meet & Greet sessions worthwhile in establishing a positive connection with your child's teacher. Please know that our teachers are more than willing to make themselves available to discuss any concerns that you may have during the year. Experience shows us that when parents and school staff are working together, children feel well supported and have a better chance of making progress.
Parent-School Partnership Framework
Our diocesan system of schools has developed this framework to support the positive connections that exist between home, school and parish. Together, we are all striving to provide a school environment for the children to find meaning and purpose through continual growth in faith and learning. I encourage you to read through this framework.
At times during the year, you may need to raise an issue or concern about your child's learning or social and emotional wellbeing. In the first instance, we ask you to contact your child's teacher via the office (email or phone). Please be mindful that their teacher will be on class and supervision duty for most of the day, so they may not be able to contact you until the afternoon or the next day. After this initial contact, it may be considered that support from one of our Leadership Team members is required. Our Leadership Team members are:
Principal: Mr Paul Moroney
Assistant Principal: Mr Trevor Williams
Religious Education Coordinator: Miss Emily Costello
Middle Leaders: Mrs Helen Libro, Mrs Alicia Sinfield, Miss Hannah Witheridge
