Collecting children during the day

Please note that if you are collecting children for appointments during the day, Sharon will contact the class and your child will meet you in the Office. When returning your child to school after an appointment, sign them in at the Office and they will return to class on their own.

Covid

A few children in year 2 and 6 are away with Covid. Thank you to the families for keeping their children home. It helps all of us.

Smart Watches

Some children have these. If your child wears one to school please ensure it is set to ‘school’ mode, as all messages/calls go through Sharon in our office in order that we are across what is taking place. Thank you.

School Fees

All School Fee Statements were emailed out to families last week. If you did not receive it, please contact the office or email hrsfinance@cewa.edu.au. A reminder that the Payment Option Form is required to be completed and returned by Tuesday 28 February.

Project Compassion

Earlier this week the eldest child in each family would have brought home a Project Compassion collection box. Donations can be placed in this box in support of Caritas Australia and returned to school by Monday 3 April.


This year's Project Compassion theme is 'For All Future Generations'. This message invites us to step up for those who do not have the essential resources they need for their survival and those whose needs at this time are far beyond ours. By putting compassion into action, we can make a difference today, 'For All Future Generations'.

Making Jesus Real

Our MJR award winner for this week is Benji R from 1C. He is recognised for displaying the MJR values at Holy Rosary on a daily basis. He displayed kindness and compassion to those around him. Congratulations!!

Easter is our focus in library, and reading “The Thick Fat Pancake” had everyone in fits of laughter. Year 1 to 3’s have signed up for the Junior Chess Tournament which will start in the next 2 weeks. Year 5’s can sign up for Book Club next week, and of course Numero is proving a huge hit on Friday mornings before school with Mr Scutti. Have a lovely weekend.
