Dear Parents and Guardians,  

Welcome to Week 7. The term is flying, and the students and teachers are all working very hard as they head into the last 3 weeks of Term 2.  

NCCD - Nationally Consistent Collection of Data       

The NCCD is an annual collection of information from all Australian schools on the numbers of students with disability and the adjustments they receive. All Teachers at St. Joseph’s School will be expected to understand their obligations to students with disability under the DDA and the Disability Standards for Education 2005 and consistently collect and provide evidence which is recorded on ENGAGE. (Please insert Fact Sheet here).   

Visitors  

This week we welcomed back Ms. Lillian Miller - Consultant First Nations Education from Cairns Catholic Education to our School. Lillian will continue to provide her service to St. Joseph's School during Reconciliation Week.  

In Week 9 we have Vicki Reimann - Psychologist from Cairns Catholic Education visiting for the week and supporting teachers and students.    

If you have any questions please feel free to make contact with myself at a convenient time that suits. My email address is   mturner@cns.catholic.edu.au   
  

Kind Regards,  

Melanie Turner.
