Dear Families and Friends
Welcome to St Mary Magdalene’s learning community 2010 and I hope that you have had a loving and enjoyable holiday and family time. Each new year brings excitement, change and renewal. Below is an outline of changes that apply to our community.
Welcome Special welcome to our returning families and our new students: Emma, Brock, Demitri, Liam, Tahlia, Jayde (R/1MR), Tiana, Zaid, Krishneel, Caitlin, Taylor, Savhannah (R/1LD), Tori (3/4PK), Noah (3/4SB), Cristian (5KB), Ben (MSLS) and Nichola (MSWM). We also welcome new and returning staff members, Johanna West, Wayne Martin and Pat Killen.
2010 Staff The staff returned to school last week and have been busy preparing for the return of students. When issues arise for you and/or your children, you are encouraged to make first contact with your child’s class teacher or appropriate staff member. The school staff are:
Changes in Procedures and Times As advised last year, there are some changes to the way that we will operate this year.
Newsletters Newsletters will be issued fortnightly (odd weeks) on Thursdays. During even weeks, Tammy Bruecher will send home a Community Connections Newsletter giving details of community events held locally. In building community we are happy to make announcements in the school newsletter relating to community births, deaths and special achievements. Someone on staff will always check with you that it is ok to include such information. If you would like to share something in the newsletter please contact Linda in the Front Office.
Assemblies Will be held fortnightly on Fridays 9-9.20 a.m. in even weeks. Each class will have a turn at hosting assemblies. Parents and caregivers are warmly invited to be a part of these events.
Absent from School When your child is/will be absent from school please report this information to your child’s teacher or Linda in the Front Office.
Uniform It was wonderful to see so many students arrive at school yesterday wearing correct school uniform. Wearing the correct uniform is about building a sense of belonging, pride and equity. Please ensure that all uniform items are labelled with your child’s name. When your child is out of uniform, please write or speak to your child’s teacher to save any confusion. Contact Linda in the Front Office if you have any questions relating to uniform. Lost property is located in the Front Office.
Oval Use Reception – Yr 2 at recess times and Yr 3-7 at lunch times. Hats are compulsory for staff and students at these times. No hat means students must play under a shaded structure.
BER Building Program Nothing much different to when we left last year! We patiently await our new hall, canteen and OSHC facilities. The delay in proceedings is due to the tender coming in over budget. Negotiations are occurring to ensure that we obtain the best possible outcome within the allocated monies from the Australian Government. I will keep you informed of any updates. If you would like to look at the new building plans please contact Linda in the Front Office.
Calendar Included with this newsletter is a list of calendar dates for this term.
Wishing everyone a happy and successful year of learning,
Rainbows
Trish Jones Principal
