From The Principal's Desk
Dear Parents and Carers,
St Clare’s Feast Day
Yesterday we held a lovely liturgy with students and staff to celebrate our school feast day. Fr Hilary presided and many students assisted in various roles during the liturgy. At morning tea, students enjoyed sharing and eating our special cake. During the middle session, classes joined together for some fun ‘feast day activities’.
Assembly this week
Parents are invited to attend assembly from this Friday. All adults who are not school staff will need to be seated in specific areas and our school leaders will guide you on the day. If you arrive before 8:40am please wait under the school (with physical distancing) until the bell has gone and students have moved to classrooms. Once you walk around past the tuckshop you will be asked to sign in and sanitise your hands and shown where you are able to sit. Please observe physical distancing when seated. We appreciate your support in the practices we need to follow due to COVID-19.
Pupil Free Day
Please remember that Friday September 4th is a pupil free day. All of our staff will be off site that day for professional learning.
Parent Teacher Interviews
PTO information was sent home last week regarding parent teacher interviews in either Week 6 or 7. Please ensure you go online and book in for a time before this Friday at 3pm as the system will close at this time. Teachers will also need to keep attendance registers for interviews.
Fee account update
St Clare’s School will soon release an update to our accounts system which will result in the term fee statements, invoices and receipts being emailed to each Account Holder where there is joint and several fee responsibility. The fee statement will be emailed to the email address that the school holds for each account holder.
Please ensure the schools holds your most current email address and contact the school finance staff if you have any queries.
Long Service Leave
I will be on leave from next Friday 28th until the start of Week 9. During my absence the leadership team will be delegated all school responsibilities (Kath Kennedy, Chris Edwards and Helen Andrews).
Best wishes for the week ahead,
Narelle Harney
