PARENT TEACHER INTERVIEWS
Next week you will receive information in relation to booking your Parent-Teacher Interviews times online through the Compass App.
The interviews will be held in week 8 on Monday 15 March and Tuesday 16 March
between 3.40 pm and 6 pm.
These meetings provide the opportunity to meet individually with teachers to discuss any goals, concerns or queries you may have regarding your child’s education and I urge you all, if possible, to avail yourself of this opportunity.
We look forward to sharing this time with you to further support your child's progress. Thank you for your cooperation.

CURRENT COVID GUIDELINES
- Students and staff with even mild symptoms of COVID 19 are not to attend school. Parents of symptomatic children should provide evidence of a negative result prior to returning to school. In circumstances where children have other medical reasons for recurrent symptoms, a letter fro the GP is sufficient to negate the requirement for a negative test.
- We will continue our regular COVID safe practices of student hand sanitising on entry to the school, after mealtimes and during the day.
Week 5 Highlights that we are truly grateful for:
- Mrs Piccini and our BFF groups
- The Incitare Retreat and how Anna, Sarah and Banjo participated so beautifully and honestly.
- Our students who are beginning the preparation for the Sacrament of Penance.
- The Student Representative Council for their ongoing organisation of his term's Fundraiser.
- The Parent Forum for their efforts, time and hard to bring us the St Joseph's Community Fair.
- Our parent community for getting involved, volunteering to help and supporting the St Joseph's Community Fair.
Have a wonderful weekend!
Regards
