PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE
Dear Parents and Caregivers,
I hope you are managing to keep dry and well in the recent rains. Next week’s weather looks to be overall much clearer and I know the students will be looking forward to the grass drying out to play on once again.
Prayer for Pope Leo XIV
Habemus Papam!
We continue to celebrate and keep Pope Leo in our prayers.
We pray that Pope Leo XIV be strengthened in his ministry.
May he continue building bridges that connect us to one another.
May he be an example of faith, hope and love.
We pray that you give him joy in his work and a renewed fervor for your Gospel message.
Amen
Professional Learning
Over recent days I have had the privilege of attending the Association of Catholic School Principals Conference NSW. The last few days have been very full and inspiring, consisting of a number of keynote addresses and workshop style presentations. The guest speakers were of very high quality and covered topics most pertinent to the role of leading vibrant catholic school communities.
Some of the speakers included leading names in faith, learning and wellbeing Simon Breakspear, Derek Wenmoth, Dr Yong Zaao, Daniella Falecki, Professor Lea Waters, Austin Ivereigh and was hosted by Mick Bazzina. The theme of the conference was Living Waters Leading with Faith. I look forward to sharing what I have learnt with the leadership team and wider staff.
Uniforms
A reminder that students should now be in their full winter uniform as we are no longer in a transitory phase. Thank you to the students who wear their full school uniform with pride each day at school. Please see previous newsletter editions for uniform clarification, or feel free to get in touch with Poppet’s or our school office.
Kind regards
Mr Mitchell Elks
Principal
