Pupil Free Day and Affirmations

We have our first of two allocated pupil free days this Friday. This means the students, and hopefully their families, will have a 4-day long weekend. We will see you all back at school on Tuesday. Affirmations will be published for Weeks 5-7 next week and distributed next Friday. 

Tell Them From Me (TTFM) Parent Survey

We have had 36 parents complete the Tell Them From Me survey since it opened last week. This represents 32% of our families. In order to have accurate data, we require further responses from our families.

The survey will take approximately 15 minutes to complete. You can access the parent survey on your computer or mobile device here:

2023 Enrolments 

We have spent the past 2 days welcoming our new enrolments for 2023 and sharing our beautiful community with them. We are so excited to welcome new families to our school in Kindergarten and older grades. We understand that you may have changes happening for your own family next year. If this includes your child finishing at St Thomas More's at the end of 2022 please email luke.donnelly@cg.catholic.edu.au. If you are considering leaving we would love you to get in touch so we can support you in this decision.

Floriade at St Thomas More's

We had such an exciting time last Thursday planting bulbs with our buddies. Thank you to the teachers, Mr Hallam, Mrs Ogden, Mrs Holl, parents and grandparents who were able to plant with us!

Baptism News

Congratulations to Elliot, Matilda and Oliver Head who were welcomed into the Catholic faith through baptism on the weekend. It was such a lovely celebration for the Head family and staff who were able to attend. Matilda and Elliot will now continue their preparation for other sacraments.

St Thomas More's Forum

We would love to have a table of staff and parents for the St Thomas More's Forum on Friday 24 June at the Mecure Hotel. The keynote speaker is Paul Kelly, Editor-at-Large of the Australian. Paul's keynote is titled Politics and Religion: The Growing Clash. Bookings can be made through the brochure attached. Please notify us here at school if you plan to attend so that we can organise the table.

Parent Teacher Interviews and Semester One Reports

Parent Teacher interviews are being held on Monday and Tuesday 20 and 21 June. Bookings will be available via Compass on Wednesday next week. Semester One Reports will be uploaded to Compass on Friday of that week. There will not be a grade for Italian this term due to staff absences. Italian will be taught and assessed in Semester Two.
