Students return on Tuesday 23 July 2019 for term 3 in full winter uniform.

Monday 22 July is a Staff Development Day (no pupils).  School Zones come back into force on Monday 22 July 2019.

Parent Teacher interviews will be held during Week 9 of Term 2 (24 June – 28 June 2019).  Year 2 will also have interviews on 2 July 2019.

YEAR 6 PLEASE NOTE:  Due to Mrs Paul being on long service leave, parent/teacher interviews for year 6 will be held later in Term 3.  You will receive a separate booking code closer to the time.

Interviews are for 15 minutes, with morning, afternoon and evening timeslots available.  You can now book interviews at times that suit your family best.  Split families are welcome to make separate interviews.

When you click finish, your interview timetable will be emailed to you automatically – check your junk mail folder if you do not receive your email immediately.

Parents can change their interview bookings, any time prior to the closing date, by re-visiting the www.schoolinterviews.com.au website, and using the event code.

We will be holding two Discos on the night at separate times.

Junior (K-2) 5.30-6.45pm (toddlers / pre schoolers welcome)
Senior (3-6) 7.00-8.30pm

This will result in a less crowded hall, less overwhelmed little ones, and more space for everyone to dance and enjoy themselves.  See newsletter for full details.

St Joseph’s will be holding five “Learning Together Playgroups” during June, July and August.  These will run on Monday mornings in conjunction with the Parish playgroup.  We believe they will supply all pre-schoolers and their parent/s with opportunities to meet other families in the local area, engage in playful learning activities and develop new skills.

The playgroups will be facilitated by early learning educators and staff from the Catholic Schools Office.

All preschool children families and carers are welcome – no RSVP required.  Spread the word!
