It was lovely to see so many families last night at our Parent Information Evening. Thank you to the many staff who prepared and organised all of the handouts and presentations for our parents. These will be sent home today for any families that weren't able to attend. Please take the time to read them over the coming week to remain informed.

Important! Please look at the family details form that is in the pack. Check the details are correct and send it back as soon as possible so we know the best way to contact you.

Multicultural Carnevale (Fete)

We're looking forward to next week's Multicultural Carnevale. It's always a lovely way to start the year and together we can raise some significant funds to support the learning opportunities for our students. We still need volunteers for a number of stalls. Just one hour of help will make a big difference. Please go to the following link to volunteer you time:

Please share with family and friends about our Silent Auction.

Swimming Carnival

Our Year 2-6 Swimming Carnival is on Monday! We're looking forward to a fun event where every child participates in a race and/or water activities. Thank you to our Year 3 and 4 teaches for organising the event.

After school Theatre Program

We like to try to find great extra-curriculum opportunities for our students where we can. Did you know you can enrol your child in an after school theatre program, right here at St John the Apostle Primary School?

Classes run on Tuesdays from 3:05-4:05, for years 3-6 and allow your child to become a young artist, discovering the joy of performance in weekly workshops. Your young artists will be introduced to a variety of theatre skills through fun and engaging exploration, devising and performance. Each semester culminates with an ensemble performance for family and friends.

Community Council AGM

This Wednesday evening at 6.00pm is our Community Council AGM. At the AGM we summarise some of the work of the school and Community Council from 2019 and begin to discuss the focus for the Community Council in 2020. The AGM is open to all members of the community. During the AGM we will elect the Community Council members for 2020 and fill any vacant positions on the Community Council Executive. We have a very active Community Council and I'm looking forward to what we will achieve together this year.
