Kinder 2025 Enrolments We are delighted to meet our Kinder 2025 students and look forward to further enrolment interviews in coming weeks. Please let family and friends of Kinder-2025 students know that it is enrolment time!

Year 7 Enrolling Now This week our Year 6 students attended an orientation to secondary school at Lumen Christi Catholic College. As a Catholic school in the archdiocese of Canberra and Goulburn, St Patrick's is a feeder school to Lumen Christi Catholic College.

We highly recommend to families of Year 6 students that you consider Lumen Christi for your child's secondary education. For more information about LCCC please visit their website https://lumen.nsw.edu.au/ or contact Catherine Martino to book an appointment to discuss the pathway from Year 6 at St Patrick's to Year 7 at Lumen Christi. Year 7 enrolments are happening now.

Communicating with school Have you got a question, query or wondering about your child's learning and engagement at school? Great! We are here to listen to you and talk with you. So, what are the steps?

* most enquiries are between you and your child's teacher, you can email them to connect via email, or to make a time for a phone or in person chat.

* some enquiries are with another teacher, again email is a great starting place.

* sometimes you want to talk with me or a member of the Leadership Team, feel free to email or to phone the office to make a time for a call back or a meeting.

We value working in partnership with you.

I hope to see many families at the march tomorrow!

Blessings,

Jo
