Dear Parents and Carers

Welcome to the end of Week 4.

It has been wonderful to have had half of our students return this week and they are very thankful to be back at school.  Everyone is looking forward for the remainder of our students to be back next week.

For the people who missed the email sent out last week, I would like to announce that Mrs Thomas who is currently working at St Matthews Page as their REC, has been appointed as the permanent REC (Religious Education Coordinator) at St Francis of Assisi Calwell for 2022 and beyond. 

Sharee has been the REC at St John Vianney’s since 2012 and she will be sorely missed as a teacher and executive member of our school.  We wish Mrs Thomas all the best on her continuing educational journey at her new school.   

Canteen– Parent helpers

Our canteen is scheduled to begin next Wednesday.  We are sorely in need for parent helpers and the survey that I placed out last term indicated that we had parents who were eager and willing to help.  We now need that help, otherwise without enough volunteers we will need to close the canteen until we have a functioning roster. 

A reminder that all parent helpers who come into the school to work in the canteen,  need to have an up to date WWVP Card and be double vaccinated.  Please find the volunteer note in the Tuckshop page in this newsletter. 

God bless everyone and stay safe
