A warm welcome back to all our students and families as we begin Term 3! We hope you had a restful and enjoyable winter holiday, filled with opportunities to relax, reconnect, and recharge. The school has been a little quieter without the energy of our students, and we're so excited to hear about their adventures and see their smiling faces fill the classrooms and playgrounds once again. We have another busy and enriching term planned, full of engaging learning experiences, faith development, and community events, including Jeans for Genes Day, Book Week, Parish Confirmation, and Grandparents Day and a Colour Run. We look forward to working with you to make Term 3 a wonderful and successful one for every child in our school.

School Attendance

Every day at school offers valuable opportunities for growth, learning, and connection, and consistent attendance plays a crucial role in your child's overall success and well-being.

When your child attends school regularly, they not only keep pace with their learning but also develop vital social skills. They participate in classroom discussions, collaborate with peers on projects, and build strong relationships with their teachers and friends. These interactions are just as important as the lessons themselves, fostering a sense of belonging and confidence. Missing even a few days can mean falling behind, missing key concepts, and feeling disconnected from their classmates.

We understand that illness or unforeseen circumstances can sometimes prevent attendance, and in those cases, we ask that you notify the school. However, we encourage families to prioritise school attendance as much as possible, planning appointments outside of school hours where feasible. Your support in ensuring your child is at school, on time, and ready to learn each day makes a significant difference.

Wishing you a blessed week,
