PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE
Dear Parents,
I hope that Easter was a time of special blessings for you and your family. I trust that you enjoyed the four-day break and the chance to relax with family and friends. Year Two shared a special celebration with us on Monday which encouraged us to continue the work of Jesus by living like Jesus. Our Easter season continues for 50 days after Easter until the disciples were filled with the gift of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost.
Congratulations Sarah Kennelly
Congratulations to Sarah Kennelly who graduated from ACU on Friday 12th of April with a dual Bachelor of Education (Early Childhood and Primary) degree. We wish Sarah all the best with a long and successful career ahead of her.
Hall and Office Renovation project
Our hall and front office renovation project is in full swing and we are on track to have these renovations occur during the Term 2 holidays. A finishes board will be on display in the front foyer if you would like to see some of the proposed finishes to be used in the project. Next week, we will have some times to take interested members of the community on a walk and talk showcase of our project. See the newsletter next week for dates and times.
Open Days and Enrolment Period
Tomorrow we have our first school Open Day between 9 am and 6 pm to showcase our wonderful school. Please let friends know of this event and don't forget to share your experiences of the school with others. Your feedback is still the defining advertisement for Sts Peter and Paul Primary School and the main reason families want their child to attend this great school. If these dates and times do not work, please contact the office to arrange another time to tour our school. Year 6 leaders will be available during these days to facilitate tours of the school.
Parking around the school
I received notification from Transport Canberra over the holidays about unsafe and illegal parking on Webster Street near the school during the school peak periods. They have advised that Parking Operations may visit the area in the coming weeks to monitor and enforce safe parking practices in the area. They have provided some information about safe parking, how it will be enforced and trying to avoid peak times. Please keep safety in mind when parking particularly during peak periods.
