Thank you for a great year!

This is the final newsletter for 2020… what a year! It won’t go down as one of the good ones but, we’ve managed to get through it and have much to be thankful for. Thank you to all our families for the patience and support you have shown the school this year, we truly appreciate it.

Goodbye and Farewell

This morning we said farewell to several St Joseph’s staff members, students and families.

In the spirit of God’s love, we pray for each of you, as life leads you on a new path. 

May God’s spirit continue to renew in you the call to act justly, to love mercy and walk humbly with God who lies at the heart of all you do.

May our God of love continue to bless you and may Jesus live in your hearts forever.    

Amen

We sadly say goodbye to Miss Megan Newell (APRE), Ms Sigita Ulanas (Learning Support Teacher) and Miss Andrieka Knight (Prep Teacher) and Mr Joe Simmons (Relief Contract Teacher). On behalf of St Joseph’s school community, I thank them for their hard work and dedication to our school and wish them all the best for 2021 and beyond.

We also farewelled our current Year 6 students. It has been a privilege to witness them grow & learn. I hope that their time at St Joseph’s has been enjoyable and that what they have learned here will hold them in good stead as they progress through life.

For a number of students and families, today ends a lengthy association with our school as they move to other locations. Parents, thank you for entrusting us with your children & for your many & varied contributions that have enriched our community. We wish you every happiness for the
future.

Have a safe, happy and Holy Christmas 

On behalf of the staff of St Joseph’s Parish School, I wish you all a very safe, happy and Holy Christmas and holiday period. I particularly thank and extend our best wishes to those families 
who are moving on from St Joseph’s at the end of the year. To those families returning in 2021, we will all be looking forward to seeing the children back at St Joseph’s when school resumes on Wednesday 27th January.

God bless!
