Principal's Message

Dear Parents and Carers,

5/6 Camp - Change of venue

I’m sure everyone's heads are spinning with restriction changes and the impacts these have on our daily lives. Given Melbourne’s lockdown, our current school operations guide and feedback received from a number of parents we have decided to cancel our 5/6 camp to Melbourne, HOWEVER, we have managed to secure a camp booking at Roses Gap (last year’s destination) from Wednesday 1st September - Friday 3rd September. This is only a week and a half away so 5/6s start packing! We will send home more information next week. 

Parent Teacher Interviews - 7th and 8th September

We are preparing to conduct 3 Way Conferences with Students, Teachers and Parents in Term 3, COVID guidelines allowing. We are hoping to conduct these on Tuesday 7th and Wednesday 8th of September. This change from traditional parent teacher interviews is in response to discussions at a staff level and Community Conversation feedback. 3 way Conferences involve children sharing samples of work (student and teacher chosen). These can be from their portfolios/work books or online. These conferences involve the student, teacher and parent. The students, under teacher supervision, are responsible for leading the conference and sharing their educational journey with their parents and teacher. 

Building Update

Over the past few weeks we have had some fantastic progress with the school building project. Large sections of roofing installed, aluminum window and door framing installed, steel works completed, framing commenced in the library/classroom area, sports room conversion is framed, plastered, windows and doors installed. It is great to see this progress. The revised completion date is now in November, bearing no more delays! Thanks to Sam Boyle, Site Foreman, for coordinating this boost in progress. 

Remote Learning Catholic Network communication 

On Monday this week we communicated a letter to all families regarding our approach to future lockdown periods in regional Victoria. The purpose of this letter is to provide all families with a clear understanding of the consistent network approach to any future remote and flexible learning transitions and extended  periods of this learning. This letter is attached to this newsletter column. 

Kind regards,

Nick Murrell

Principal
