Dear Parents and Carers

This Saturday we have a number of our Year 6 students receiving the Sacrament of Confirmation.  We ask you all to pray for these students as they continue their journey of Catholic Faith. Thank you to the families and staff who have worked with these students to prepare them.  Also the staff and students from SFX who facilitated the reflection day held yeasterday for all candidates.

With the forecast of very wet and cold weather this Friday the SSV District Athletics has been rescheduled for Wednesday 3 September.  An email has been sent to relevant parents about the change in date.  We are aware this will clash with Year 4 Mass and Year 3 Swimming on this day.  There will be communication with parents about the clash.

To celebrate and acknowledge our Fathers, on Thursday 4 and Friday 5 September we will hold "Dads and Donuts". Dads and/or Father figures are invited to join us from 8.30am until 9.30am for donuts and a visit to their child's class.  To assist with catering and numbers we have split it over 2 days with surnames A to K on Thursday 4 September and surnames L to Z on Friday 5 September.  If you are unable to make your designated day it is OK to attend the alternate day. 

There are a number of events happening over the last 3 weeks of Term 3, so please note dates and set reminders if necessary.  The term will culminate with our traditional Footy Colours Day on Thursday 18 September.  Students are welcome to wear their "footy colours" on this day and hot dogs for lunch will be arranged by our Parents and Friends group.  To purchase a hot dog for your child please place orders via CDFpay by 5pm on Tuesday 9 September.
