15th December 2022, Week 10, Term 4
From our Principal, Mr Moloney
Dear Families,
What a year we have had, you have shown so much strength to work through the challenges that have presented themselves this year, you are truly amazing. I pray that each and every one of you have a very special Christmas and enjoy the time with family and friends. From all of us at St Joseph’s we wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! We look forward to much excitement to the promise of a new school year and continuing our learning journey together.
Restoration Works
It is fantastic that we now have the student toilets completed and back to normal use. Things are also on track to have the staff toilets and canteen completed by the beginning of the new school year. This will mean that all the building restoration works are completed. We thank D J Construction who came on board after issues with our previous restoration team to get the job done.
This means that the remaining work is to complete the landscaping. The sandpit will be completed for the beginning of the new school year along with artificial turf, the rest of the playground works will also be hopefully close the completion.
Parish Centenary Celebrations
Next year will see our Parish celebrate its centenary. The date for the celebration has been set for the 12th February. Please keep this date in your diary as we would love as many to be able to join us for this special celebration as possible. We will also be looking for helpers to support with morning tea which is being organised by our P&F. More details will be provided early next year.
God Bless,
Brendan Moloney
