Working Bee
A big thank you to those families who were able to join us for our Working Bee last weekend, many hands made light work. Our yard is looking very impressive ready for our open day next term.
Project Compassion
During Lent, children are welcome to bring in donations for Project Compassion to help people living in poverty. For every $3 donated we will contribute rice to the class jar. At the end of Lent we will cook and share the rice. Children are invited to wear purple on the last day of term to representing Lent.
2023 Online Enrolments – You are now able to submit online forms for enrolment in Catholic schools and ELCs for 2023. A reminder to all ELC families that you do need to submit an enrolment form for Kindergarten in 2023. To access on-line enrolment, visit the relevant school website.
Enrolment Zones
Enrolments are now open for the Primary schools (St Jude and St John Vianney) and ELC for 2023.
* Children living in Holder or Duffy are zoned for St Jude’s for primary school.
* If your residential address is Stirling, Fisher, Waramanga, Chapman or Rivett you are zoned for St John Vianney’s.
* Weston and Molonglo are shared zones and families can choose which school to apply for. Please note this does not guarantee you a place at that school.
Enrolments are based on a priority system.
