Dear Parents & Friends of St Joseph’s School Wee Waa,
It has been beautiful to see so many smiling faces at school. To come to school each day and be greeted by the students with a warm smile and a good morning, really makes my day. Even more so now after we have had two small rainfalls. Students have been coming up to me and talking about their crops and gardens at home and how even these small falls will help. I am praying that there is more to come though.
Parents & Friends Committee
Last night we had a meeting at 6pm to discuss upcoming fundraising opportunities and our next steps for the P&F committee to focus on for 2019. All parents are welcome to attend our meetings and I encourage all parents and friends of the school to attend a meeting this year. Our next meeting will be held on the 9 April.
Grandparents & Special Friends Day
Earlier in the week, children were sent home with an invitation to our Grandparents & Special Friends day, which we will be celebrating next Wednesday 20 March, starting at 10:00 AM, here at school. I encourage all families to support this wonderful occasion and invite all grandparents and other special friends to join us for morning assembly, time in the classroom with the children and a shared morning tea.
Book Fair
Next Wednesday to coincide with Grandparents & Special Friends day, we will be running our annual Scholastic Book Fair. Purchases made on the day will help us as a school to purchase new books for our library as well as the classroom.
Jill Haire
Congratulations to Jill’s daughter Lisa who gets married on Friday. Mrs Haire has travelled to the Sunshine Coast to help her family prepare for this occasion. We will keep them in our thoughts and prayers this week. Mrs Haire will be back next Monday.
Have a blessed week
Alistair Stewart
