Dear Parents and Carers,

Thank you for making time to come to school for a parent teacher interview this week. It has been great to see so many parents making time to speak with your child's class teacher about Term 1, engagement and progress in learning. If you were unable to make an appointment this week, please email your child's teacher and they will work with you to book a mutually convenient time for a face to face or phone interview.

 

Year 6 Leadership

We were able to present Monique with her leadership badge at a morning assembly this week. Thank you for accepting responsibility as an Indigenous Leader at St Pat's Monique. We look forward to you working alongside Will with our Aboriginal Education Workers, Brytan Aldridge and Chantelle Dixon and leading initiatives and learning.

 

Celebrating Learning

Every day we celebrate behaviours for learning and learning achievement. It is great to be both in the classrooms and have visitors to my office to share learning.

Cold Days Happy Play

 

Uniform Policy

As the weather started to change these last few days, I would like to remind families about our Term 2/3 and Winter uniform policy. For the duration of Term 2 and 3 students can wear their winter uniform everyday, if they wish. Our policy is that EVERY STUDENT will wear their winter uniform for the months of Winter - June, July, August. The tangible difference between Summer and Winter uniform is that in Winter all students have navy blue legs. They are to wear the navy blue school trousers, or navy blue tights with the skort. Orders for winter uniform are available from the uniform shop with orders on Qkr!

Director's visit

Next Monday, Ross Fox, the Director of Catholic Education Canberra and Goulburn will be visiting St Patrick's. Ross will meet with our Leadership Team and take a tour of the school. We look forward to showcasing some of the excellent learning and teaching in our school. 

2023 Enrolments

Thank you to the families who have already completed an enrolment form online. If your (next) child is beginning Kindergarten in 2023, or you know a family whose child is commencing next year, the enrolment form can be completed online. The official enroling period commences in the first weeks of Term 2, and the interviews will be April-June. https://enrolments.stpatsbega.nsw.edu.au/nsw-schools/start

Blessings on a joyful last weekend of Term 1. Next weekend begins the term break!
