Community Update #2.1

Welcome to Term 2

We hope you have all had a wonderful break school and enjoyed precious family time together.

Our staff are reenergised and ready for the new term. Our core value focus this term is - We are open and honest.

Below is a copy of the flyer from Fr Siby with regards to the parent evening on Wednesday 28 April. Please email the office if you are interested in attending or email me with any questions principal@spmurrumbeena.catholic.edu.au

The school buildings and the playground equipment received a fresh coat of paint during the holidays as we continue to spruce up the school.


New arrangements for drop off and pick up (as published in Community Update #1.12)

From Monday 29th March, due to the latest easing of Covid restrictions, we wish to make the following changes to current drop off and pick up practises:

DROP OFF ( 8:45am - 8:55am)
  • All children from Prep to Year 6 may enter school through the front yard gates from 8:45am and go straight into their classrooms. Parents and carers are welcome to walk their children into the front yard.
  • Children from Year 3, 4, 5 and 6 will walk their bikes and scooters in through the back yard gates and go straight to the bicycle shed and then into class from the backyard.
  • Children riding or scooting from Prep, Year 1 and 2 may enter the bicycle shed from the front yard (or the backyard if coming to school with an older sibling).
PICK UP (3:25pm)
  • Parents and carers are welcome to wait in the front yard to pick up their children at 3:25pm.
  • All children apart from the Year 3, 4, 5, 6 children who are riding will exit through the front yard.
We will continue to monitor the playground and review and make changes as necessary. Any questions, suggestions or feedback to principal@spmurrumbeena.catholic.edu.au

Term 2 - Time to open up the school and celebrate reconnecting together safely onsite

We are excited to be moving into a safer Covid normal. We are planning to welcome parents and carers into classrooms on certain days for morning prayers and for afternoon visits to view their children's work. More details coming out very soon.

School Uniform Update

Over the holidays we were informed by PSW that some sizes of the short and long sleeve polo tops are out of stock. Rather than order another run, we have decided to bring forward by a term the new checked shirt for both boys and girls in all sizes. As always, there will be a 2 year change over period where either shirt is acceptable. If you are purchasing a new shirt for the winter tunic or pants, you may prefer to opt for the new design.
Please direct any questions or feedback directly to lizh@spmurrumbeena.catholic.edu.au
We are awaiting further details and a photo to share with you as soon as we can.
