Dear Parents, 

Each year, our governing body, Diocese of Sale Catholic Education Limited, engages a company called ‘insightSRC’ to conduct surveys on schools designed to assist in gaining an understanding of parent, student, and staff perceptions of their experience at school. The results will benefit everyone within the school by providing valuable information about the ways in which the school can use staff, student and parent input to plan programs and activities to improve your child’s experience at school.

This year, a selection of our new foundation families has been randomly selected to participate in the survey. Although we strongly encourage you to participate, your participation is voluntary. It is important to remember, however, that the success of this project is dependent on parents’ involvement. If you were selected, you should have received an envelope in your child’s bag tonight labelled INSIGHT SRC, Parent School Improvement Survey. We ask that if you received one of these envelopes, could you please follow the instructions and complete the survey.

The online survey can be accessed from Monday 29th April to Friday 10th May 2024. You may complete the survey at your convenience during this time.

Staffing Announcement

At the end of this term Mrs Meg Cribbes will be going on maternity leave for the upcoming arrival of her first child. Replacing Meg, commencing the start of Term 3, will be Mr Hayden Davies. Hayden is currently employed at St Ita’s in Drouin and is the husband of our STEM teacher, Mickey. I’m sure you will all join me in welcoming Hayden to the St Angela of the Cross school community.

Parking/Child Safety

A reminder to all families about the importance of patience and safety during pick up and drop off times. With the increased number of families this year, please ensure we are sticking to the 5km hour speed limit in our school driveway and car line. We also ask that you be mindful of local residents and do not park in front of driveways and on nature strips and ensure children are fully supervised when crossing roads and getting in and out of cars.
