Principal's Report

Dear Parents,

Welcome to our final week of Term 2 and the halfway mark of our school year. This is always the point of time, as educators we stop and reflect on how much the students have grown, matured and changed over the past two terms. It has been a pleasure to read through the students’ Semester One reports and acknowledge their academic, social and personal gains across the past semester. Congratulations to each and every student for their time, effort and commitment to achieving growth since the beginning of the school year.

PARENT/TEACHER INTERVIEWS: Thank you to parents for booking their interview times via the COMPASS portal. This is always a wonderful opportunity to touch base with your child/ren’s classroom teacher and reflect on the positive growth while also discussing how to support your child/ren’s development throughout Semester Two. We look forward to hosting these important conversations with our families and continuing to support each child on their individual educational journey.

Ryan_Family.jpgFAREWELL RYAN FAMILY:
We would like to say a special farewell to
Hugh, Alexander and Maeve Ryan and their parents Madeline and Tim as they finish up at St Patrick’s School this week. A special thank you to Madeline and Tim for their unending support for St Patrick’s school over the past seven years. We are especially grateful to Madeline for her work in the Tumut/Gundagai Parish as Office Manager and her vital connections with the St Patrick’s Parish. Our best wishes to Hugh, Alexander and Maeve as they begin at a new school next term. Au Revoir Ryan family and please keep in touch.

WEEK 10 ASSEMBLY:

Our Week 10 assembly has been moved to Wednesday 29th June and will commence at 2:15pm in the Learning Hub. The choir will perform their two songs that were performed at the recent WR Choir Competition, our weekly awards and special awards will be presented along with a special farewell to the Ryan family. Parents will be notified if their child is receiving a special award. Please join us as we celebrate the end of our first school semester.

ROBOTICS INCURSION DAY: Unfortunately, Kevin and Pauline were unable to attend St Patrick’s last Friday for the annual Robotics Incursion Day, due to illness. The Robotics Day will now be held on Tuesday 19th July (first day of Term 3). The students are keenly looking forward to this exciting event.

COMPASS PORTAL: We ask parents to be proactive with the COMPASS portal and the information that is sent out. ALL our school communication now goes out via the portal. Please make sure you set your alerts to ensure you do not miss important information or school events. Parents are responsible for checking the portal and keeping up to date with events, excursions and information.

We wish all our families a wonderful school holiday and hope that there is plenty of sunshine around. Please take note of our return dates to school for Term 3 as listed below. Thank you to parents for their ongoing wonderful support and commitment to their children and the staff at St Patrick’s School. It is always a pleasure to work alongside our families and school as we work together as partners in education.
