Week 10, Term 1

Welcome to the last week of term 1!

What a fantastic term we have had. I am so incredibly proud of our gorgeous Prep Green students and how far they've come in such a short amount of time. As we embark on the holidays please remember to make sure your little one gets plenty of rest. It would be very beneficial for students to still go over their letters, numbers and popcorn words over the holidays. Thank you to all of our wonderful families for helping our students transition successfully and for always supporting our staff at St. Bernardine's.

A few reminders as we finish the term. I thank you in advance for following our school policies to ensure we provide the best for our students.

1. Parents should be waiting in the undercover area in the mornings over at the side closest to the carpark. This allows the whole school to move with ease to their classrooms and allows our prep students to focus on getting to their classrooms.

2. The mornings during message time are not time to pass on messages to the teachers. I strongly encourage you to use your communication book or send me an e-mail. Our priority is making sure the children are settled in the mornings as well as the rest of the school.

3. If your children are going to after school care or getting the bus, please let us know in your child's KIT book.
