Week 9, Term 3, 2019

Grandparents/ Special Friends Day  - Not a dry eye in sight !
We have never seen the church so full ! There was standing room only when grandparents, great grandparents and special friends came together in St Patrick's church. When the children sang a special song to their grandparents - there wasn't a dry eye in sight. One grandmother told me that her grandchildren asked why she was crying. She said she was crying tears of joy because she was so happy. Special thanks to Mrs Minter and Miss O' Halloran who helped to make the morning a big success and the Parents and Friends for supplying morning tea for hundreds of happy visitors to our school.
Our prayers and thoughts are with all of our grandparents and special friends who are unwell or who are no longer with us. Their beautiful memories are engrained in our hearts and they are with us in spirit.




First Communion Sunday 15th October 9am and 5pm
Our prayers and thoughts are with our First Communicants and their families when they receive the Holy Eucharist for the first time. Thanks to Mrs Mullans, the Year 4 teachers and families who have supported our children.

Footballers and Fairies Day Friday - School Finishes at 3:30 Normal Time !!
The last day of Term 3 is a fun time to celebrate finals fever and the end of a great term. The children can dress up in footy or fairy gear or a mixture of both. They have received their special lunch order forms. There will be no normal lunch orders on Friday. Extra forms are available from the office.

Victoria Police Blue Ribbon Foundation - September 29th Blue Ribbon Day
Aleks in Prep Y is the ambassador for the Victorian Police blue Ribbon foundation.
The foundation perpetuates the memory of members of the Victoria Police who have died in the line of duty through the support of worthwhile community projects within Victoria. They aim to encourage the public of Victoria to remember the sacrifice of officers who have fallen in the line of duty and to show all serving members of Victoria Police that their work and commitment is valued by a caring community. Well done Aleks for your support for the police. Let's thank the police for all that they do for the community if we see them in the holidays.
