Dear Parents & Guardians
Restrictions update: Social distancing is still a necessity and face masks must be worn inside. As previously stated, please do not come to school if displaying COVID symptoms.
Remote Learning: Thank you to families & staff for your continued support of what has been a challenging time for everyone. We are enjoying having everyone back onsite.
Swimming final lesson: Unfortunately we are unable to complete our final day of swimming next week as hoped , this will now be rescheduled to early Term 3. Once our date is confirmed you will receive an Operoo permission request with all of the information.
Friends of St John’s Meeting; Unfortunately this was cancelled and will be rescheduled for early next term.
Classroom move for seniors: During remote learning, the 3 new portables were made ready for the senior classes. Last Friday, the last of the furniture was relocated and the children have commenced working in these rooms. Over the holidays, the existing senior/library building will be gutted in preparation for the new building works.
Building works, Playground and Carpark: There will be some alterations to the way we use the car parking area from next term. We will be losing some of our existing parking spaces so availability of an afternoon especially will be limited. Parents will be asked to ‘pick-up and move-on’ if using the carpark. We thank you for your understanding
St John the Baptist Feast Day: 24th June is the Feast Day for St John the Baptist. Due to COVID restrictions, we will not be able to invite parents to our Feast Day Mass. As part of our celebrations, we have arranged special activities at each level and the school will also provide a ‘sausage sizzle’ lunch for the children.
School Closure Days: Please be reminded that Friday 25th June and Monday 12th July are student free days as previously advised.
Regards
Chris Dortmans, Principal
