Dear Parents and Carers,

In recent days and weeks we have welcomed several new students at St Patrick's. Welcome to Sophie in Year 3, Julianne in Year 3, Asmin in Year 5 and Araz in Year 1. On Monday we welcome another new student, Mary, into senior primary! 

This week we have published on COMPASS a letter from the outgoing Chair of the Community Council, Donna Salway urging you to consider expressing interest in a role on the next Community Council. The Expression of Interest form was also attached.

Thank you for your consideration of this engagement with our school community. If you would like a paper copy of the EOI please email the office and we will send one home.

Some of the positive outcomes of you participating in the life of the school can include

Improved Academic Performance as you more readily know about your child's participation, engagement, progress and achievement.

Enhanced Communication and Collaboration between yourself and your children's teachers and school staff.

Increased Motivation and Confidence for your child/ren as they see how much you value school.

Stronger Sense of Community as you fully participate with other parents and share in the common goal of supporting student growth and development. 

You contribute to Positivity in our School Environment and support our culture of learning and community.

Thank you for working together with us for great learning for your children and all St Patrick's children.

Blessings

Jo
