Principal's Report
Dear Parents,
The weeks continue to fly by as we suddenly find ourselves halfway through another term. Winter has well and truly arrived with the polar blast that has already hit our region and will continue to bring adverse weather conditions over the week. Students have been reminded to bring jumpers and coats to school every day. Please ensure all clothing items are clearly labelled with your child’s name.
A wonderful day was held last Wednesday when we held our annual school Athletics’ Carnival. We were fortunate to encounter beautiful weather on the day. Congratulations to all our students on the enthusiasm shown on the day and for their positive efforts. It was great to have so many parents and grandparents present as well. Special thanks to all parents who assisted on the day as it was greatly appreciated.
This Friday, our 2023 St Patrick’s Open Day will be held for anyone interested in finding out more about our wonderful little school. If you know anyone interested in sending their child to Kindergarten next year, please encourage them to come along and see what we have to offer. The Open Day will be held this Friday 3rd June commencing at 9:30am with an information session, followed by a school tour.
McAuley Catholic Central School in Tumut were delighted to announce last week that they will be offering Year 11 in 2023 and Years 11 and 12 in 2024. This is a significant step forward for Canberra-Goulburn Catholic education as it ensures there is now a Year 7-12 pathway for our local Catholic schools and provides an alternative option for parents considering Year 7-12 educational pathways. Please see information in the newsletter below about information sessions being offered by McAuley. Interested parents are encouraged to attend the Information evening.
Tell Them From Me (TTFM) is an online survey platform that is now open for all parents to provide feedback about St Patrick’s School. The information collected is a valuable tool to help us evaluate and plan ahead. Please use the link provided below to undertake the survey. We appreciate the input from our parents to help us as we plan for the 2023 school year.
Stay warm and enjoy the week ahead.
Christine Baron Principal
