From the Principal

Matthew-Garton

Dear St John the Apostle families,

Last week a small band of Year 4 students began an Origami Club in the Library each Wednesday for Years 2 to 6 students. I wanted to support their community spirit and willingness to share their intersts and talents with others. I helped them access the paper they needed and make their announcements at morning assembly.

Over the course of this week I have now had many, many groups of students come to me to ask to start their own club. We've had suggestions for book-making, arts, star wars, minecraft and next Wednesday begins a drawing club for K-2 being run by Year 3 students.

At this time of year, when all of our students are a little tired, its great to be able to provide them with the opportunity to share their intersts with others and give to their community. I will listen to them all and help them help each other.

Welcome to OSHClub

Yesterday I announced that following a rigorous selection process a new Out of Hours School Care provider, OSHClub, will begin running our Out of Hours School Care program from 2021.

I met with Nicole and Lee from the OSHClub team yesterday to plan the transition. Information about their program and the booking process will be made available next week.

I would like to thank Camp Australia and their team for their care and support for our students and their families over the past three years.

End of Semester 2 reports

Written reports will be distributed next Wednesday 25 November and these are followed by Parent-Teacher Interviews the following two weeks. Written reports and parent-teacher interviews work together to provide a more complete picture of each child's acheivements and goals. We would like every family to participate. Teachers have prepared information to share as part of the interviews. Parent-Teacher Interview times can now be booked following the link below.

Have a lovely weekend everyone.
