End Of Year Update Information

We thank you for your patience as we work through all of the ever-changing information being received. This year has certainly been challenging with decisions needing to be made that may not be exactly what all would like. A letter had been prepared to be sent out last Wednesday however once again circumstances changed. We will be sending this out tomorrow based on the guidelines received prior to the lockdown. These same guidelines have been reinstated and impact our end of year celebrations including Graduations and the School Concert.

Please note that students will still require costumes for the School Concert, however due to the current social distancing expectations and the possibility of another change, the concert will not have parents in attendance. We are currently in the process of sourcing a quality video option that will enable the concert to be viewed as a family and for many years to come. There will be no cost incurred for families as the school will cover. If anyone has connections or a suggestion for a person/company please contact Sharon Okmasich via phone or email.

Parents will be able to attend both the Year 7 Graduation and Preschool Graduation due to the smaller numbers needing to be accommodated. Preschool to school transition will still proceed. All families directly involved in these events will be provided with ongoing updated information.

Please check your child’s bag for the information letter. It will also be put up on all other media used by our school.

We understand that families will have differing thoughts and feelings about the decisions. I ask that parents contact me directly should there be anything you would like to discuss.

Your understanding is appreciated.
Sharon

Due to the latest easing of restrictions school will return to normal from Monday. All buses will be operating. We look forward to seeing everyone!

Please remember to still maintain the expected physical distancing which includes parents and family members remaining outside classrooms and not entering the gated area between JP classes. Ongoing hygiene practices such as hand washing, sanitising and increased classroom cleaning will also continue.

Enjoy your weekend!
