Principal's Page - Judy Egan
Dear Parents and Carers,
Thank you for your wonderful support of our Book Fair. It was a huge success and will ensure we can purchase further resources for our library. Thanks to Erin Hardwicke and all the staff who assisted, it was wonderful to see happy faces. I did explain to some students that a “wish list” isn’t exactly a free expense account- wouldn’t that be lovely!
This Friday is our dress up as a book character day. Staff have been enjoying deciding what we will wear, and teachers have planned some great literature activities. If the weather is fine, parents are welcome to join us in the courtyard for morning greetings/awards and a short parade.
Father’s Day Drive Through
At St Michael’s we want to acknowledge all our wonderful Dads, Stepdads, and great men in our lives. We’d love to give our Dads the 3D treatment on Friday, 2 September from 8.20am. Drop off your child, collect your Donut and receive a Dad joke! We hope that all our Dads have a wonderful Father’s Day on Sunday, 4th September.
Sharing our learning
Come and join your child on Wednesday 21st September, Week 10, for a relaxed and positive sharing of learning. Between 3:15pm and 5:30pm, you are very welcome to drop in with your child who will have organised some items to show you. This is an opportunity to chat with your child and offer praise and support.
Student leadership at St Michael’s
It’s great to see our senior students leading some school events and initiatives such as nude food on Wednesdays and a talent quest for the end of this term.
Confirmation Preparation
We prayerfully support our students and families preparing for the Sacrament of Confirmation at the end of this term. Special thanks to Fr. Luis, Meaghan Younger, Year 5/6 teachers and the Parish Team. This is a very special time and an opportunity for everyone to experience the grace of God through the power of the Holy Spirit.
40th Anniversary Celebrations
You will have seen some colourful banners in the car park, keep this date and time free to join us for our 40th Anniversary celebrations; Saturday 19 November from 11am-2pm.
It’s wonderful to see our suburbs and gardens beginning to blossom into Spring- may the sunshine fill you with warmth, hope and joy.
Many blessings,
Judy Egan
