Dear Parents and Carers,

Welcome back to Term 3. A warm St Pat’s welcome to two new students Miley in Year 6 and Trey in Year 2, and to Charlie in Year 3 who commenced in the last week of Term 2.

It is great to have all the children back rested, happy, safe and well. We do hope the holiday was time for family and relaxation.

COVID-19 We commence Term 3 with the strategies from Term 2 for Covid-19 health and safety still in place. These include:

• Physical distancing for staff / adults on site.
• Limiting of non-essential adults visiting school site. All adults who attend school site to sign register in the office.
• Handwashing and sanitising routines being taught and encouraged.
• Regular cleaning of high touch areas.
• All students and staff with cough, cold, flu like symptoms to remain at home until well, seeking medical attention if necessary.

Staffing at St Pat’s

There are a few changes to school staffing for Term 3.

Miss Michelle Dempsey will be teaching in the library and Mr Travis Broughton will be teaching PDHPE.

Mrs Catherine Coman will be teaching STEM and Mrs Franco will be full time on class.

Mr Drew will finish as Friday teacher in 45C today and the new teacher will be named next week. We thank Mr Drew for his work in our school and in 45C this year.

Spanish will be taught using the DUO LINGO app in the classrooms for the semester and will resume being a specialist lesson in 2021.

Today’s photos around the school are of 12B at the gross motor program.
