Dear Parents and Carers,
Welcome to 2020 at St Patrick’s. Yesterday was a great start for our students and staff as we begin, or continue, the journey of getting to know one another.
This term, most appropriately we are focussing on the school pillar of Look After Each Other, this is underpinned by the principle A view to our relationship with God and one another. Throughout the holiday break we have witnessed so much care and ‘looking after each other’ as the bushfires have burned in our valley and across our state and nation.
So that we can LOOK AFTER you, your children, your family, please let us know if your circumstances have changed, for any reason, including the bushfires.
Please keep updated of school news on the Skoolbag app. Next week we will be back to full production of the newsletter. In 2020 the newsletter will be available by email or on Skoolbag.
Keep safe over the hot weekend. We continue to thank everyone who is keeping us safe during the fire season.
Christ with us.

Dear St Patrick's Family,
I would like to thank Father Luke, Mrs Scott-Pegum, the dedicated staff, parents and students for your collaboration and friendship during my time at St Patrick's Bega and for the parting gifts upon my departure last year. It has been wonderful to be part of your caring community. May you all enjoy a wonderful year and many blessings into the future.
Best wishes.
