Principal's Message
Dear Parents, Carers, Staff and Students,
As we move into this religious time of Lent, it is an opportunity to reflect on and to be grateful for the many wonderful opportunities that we have in our lives.
On Shrove Tuesday, the School Captains of our school, Ivy and Blake and I had the privilege to attend the Diocesan Caritas Project Compassion launch. The key message that aligned beautifully with the fundamental principle of both Lent and Project Compassion was that we have a collective responsibility to acknowledge, pray, support and serve those in the greatest of need. Bishop Brian Mascord told us that traditionally people put money into Project Compassion boxes but he said donating money isn’t enough. We need to go out of our way to help the people in need. That through a collective sense of compassion, hope, care and generosity, we can truly make a difference for this generation and those to come.
During this season of lent we pray that we all will continue to work with the school community to implement initiatives that support the needs of others.
URGENT MATTER - FOR ALL PARENTS ATTENTION
Parents & Friends Annual General Meeting - Monday 6 March. 6:30pm in the School Library or Via Zoom.
In response to the call for parents to nominate, this year, for the key executive positions of President, Vice President, Secretary and Treasurer we have, at present, no one has been nominated for any of these key positions. This is of real concern and we run the risk of having no parents supporting this important organisation that builds on the community connection between school and the parents. Our P&F Annual General Meeting is next Monday 6 March at 6:30pm in the school library, or via zoom, and I therefore ask that you again strongly consider yourself or please engage in a conversation with other parents who may be able to support the P&F association.
If you have any questions regarding this important matter please do not hesitate to contact the school office to speak to me directly.
Take Care
Mr Justin Devlin
Principal
