Dear Parents and Carers,
We are looking forward to welcoming families to our Sharing Our learning afternoon from 3:15pm to 5:30pm this afternoon. We are obliged to remind everyone;
- Please do not attend if you are experiencing cold and flu symptoms
- Please enter via the glass sliding doors
- Masks and hand sanitiser will be available
This is an opportunity for you to share some relaxed time with your child and not for individual parent/teacher meetings. You are most welcome at any time to make an appointment to chat one on one with your child’s teacher.
Congratulations to all our classes for the engaging learning over this term. It was amazing to see so many classes enjoying the curriculum offerings. There were some fabulous dress-ups today and amazing models and creations to share.

It has been another busy and exciting term at St Michael’s. Thank you to everyone in our wonderful community for their encouragement and support. I hope all families have an opportunity to spend valuable time together over the break and stay safe and well if travelling.
We appreciate and value the ongoing support.
Many Blessings,
Principal

Community Council Corner
St Michaels Community Council met this week virtually, with the 40th Anniversary activities being key point of discussion. The Paver orders are doing exceptionally well and activities to be held at the event were discussed including stalls, rides, activities, food and all things festive. A call will be put out closer to the date for volunteers to assist on the day – all are welcome! Other key items discussed were the new lighting in the staff car park. The lighting assists our teachers with security and safety when using the car park in the darkened hours and look fantastic. Our first trial of using a local business for lunch orders occurred today, which was an exciting trial and was a great success.
