Welcome to the Parent Memo for Term 2 Week 8

Our Year 5 students are currently on camp in Sydney and from all reports are having a wonderful time!

You can keep up to date with what is happening on camp by following our school Facebook page.

The students are due back at school at 6.00pm on Friday evening and any updates to this arrival time will be made on the school Facebook page.

Tomorrow - Friday 28 June 2019 we will be celebrating our Ninja Colour Run fundraising efforts with a whole school Pyjama Day and extra play time for all students.

Thank you to everyone who raised money for the Ninja Colour Run this year.  We collected about $15,000 which will go towards gardening and landscaping around the school.

A reminder that students should dress appropriately for the weather, and must wear enclosed footwear.

Thank you to all those families who have settled their Term 2 school fee accounts.  A reminder that Term 2 fees are now overdue (unless paying by regular instalments) and payment as soon as possible would be much appreciated.

If you have any school fee queries please give me a call on 6292 4500 or email susan.rowell@cg.catholic.edu.au from Tuesday to Friday.

Kind regards

Susan Rowell
