Happy Birthday to Charlie N and Elizabeth S
This week we are learning about the season of Lent. On Shrove Tuesday each class made pancakes to share. On Ash Wednesday we visited the church and Fr Michael placed a cross on our heads with ashes. Throughout Lent, we will be learning about the importance of prayer, of doing kind things for others and we will be participating in Project Compassion to help people living in poverty.
Fruit Shop
Next Wednesday our ELC ‘Fruit Shop’ will be open for business. You will no longer need to pack a fruit snack on Wednesdays. If you have fruits or vegetables growing in your gardens at home and would like to share, please do. Alternatively, if you see strange and exotic fruits or vegetables in the shops please let us know.
St Jude’s Fete
The St Jude’s Fete will be on Saturday 18th March. This is a great fun day to meet other families and raise some funds for the school. This year the ELC will be hosting the hairspray stall. Many hands make light work, so we’d love for you to get involved. More information on how to volunteer will come soon.
Mufti Day
Mufti Day (non-uniform day) is on Friday 3 March (week 5) for Turtles and Lobsters and Monday 6 March (week 6) for Stingrays. The aim is to collect supplies and donations for our fete stall. Children are invited to wear plain clothes and we ask that you donate a can of coloured hairspray and a gold coin.
Mystery Reader
Elsie was the mystery reader for the Stingrays class this week. She read Thelma the Unicorn and the Stingrays class listened beautifully!
Great reading Elsie!!
Car park
The carpark in front of the school is designated for ELC families. Please do not use this carpark at drop-off or pick-up times if you do not have a child in the ELC. ELC families will be issued with a sign to display on the dashboard and any vehicles not displaying the sign will receive a notice to inform them of the car park expectations.

SJV NETBALL
Registrations will soon
be open for the Winter
Netball season.
SJV enters a handful of
teams each year in the
local competition at
Arawang Netball Courts in Stirling. It is lots of fun for both children and parents alike, and a
great way to get to know other members of the SJV
community.
Games begin Saturday (morning) 29 April, but teams may like to get some practice in before
the Easter holidays. The season ends early September, and games are not played on
long weekends or in school holidays. Training is usually held in the SJV grounds, straight
after school (depending on coach/player availability). All games at held at the netball courts
on Streeton Drive.
Players: Boys & Girls - Years 2-6 (if there are any keen Year 1s, they would also be warmly
welcomed to help Year 2 field a full team)
We are really keen for some more Year 1 Year 2 and Year 3 players to make a full team.
Rego: TBC (approximately $185 for the season)
Please get in touch with Rebecca Battaglini by Friday 24 February
(danbec@grapevine.net.au) to register your interest, offer coaching/umpiring support,
and/or to ask any further questions.
WMFC 2023 Miniroos, Girls and Open U10 - U18 Registrations are now Open.
