St Patrick’s Youth Faith Formation Afternoon
I would like to thank all the boys and girls who attended our youth faith formation session yesterday afternoon. My gratitude goes out in particular to Mr Mattas our Religious Education Coordinator, Mrs Mouna Roach, Mr Timothy Hart and Mr David Gearin for their running of workshops throughout the afternoon. Please read all about it further on in the newsletter.
New Monitors in Classrooms for 2025
I’m pleased to inform you that all of our classrooms that aren’t equipped with 75 inch monitors will be upgraded for the 2025 school year. This will make it easier for all students to be able to view the screen from wherever they are in the classroom.
Kindergarten, Year One and Year Two classes will be equipped with brand new interactive monitors for commbox. These screens allow teachers to share work, access the internet as well as a variety of apps. Multiple student can also interact with the screen at the same time. Professional learning for these teachers will occur early in the new year.
P & F
The school is very grateful to the P & F who at their last meeting approved funds for the purchase of new soccer goals for the students, a new personalised gazebo for gala days, sports carnivals and outdoor events. The P & F have also provided funds for the purchase of 10 new iPads for our K-3 students as well as some outdoor games and equipment for playtime. Thank you to the P&F for all of their support. These funds directly benefit the students of St Patricks.
Kind regards
Mr Mitchell Elks
Principal
