Dear Parents and Caregivers

Thank you to all the parents and family members who supported our athletics carnivals this week, particularly those who assisted. We cannot run these events without you! Congratulations to Miss Natalie Brescacin who co-ordinated both days and our sincere thanks goes to Brad Evans and Guildford Grammar for allowing us the use of their facilities. The carnivals were a great success, we were blessed with beautiful weather and a great a time was had by all. Congratulations to the students who all tried their best – I was so proud of your good sportsmanship and the way you supported and encouraged each other!

Book Fair

A reminder that next week is our book fair. We will be hosting our book week parade at 9am on Monday where students come dressed as a book character. The book fair will be open from Monday to Thursday. It’s a great chance to get some early Christmas shopping done and funds raised will allow the school to purchase new books. Keep an eye out for the class wish lists in the library for an opportunity to purchase a book to donate to your child’s class. Tuesday night is our open night from 6pm to 8pm. Come along and visit your child’s classroom and the book fair!

Planning for 2020

As Term 3 starts to draw to a close, we will soon be commencing work on our 2020 budget. Our budget figures are based on expected enrolment figures, so if you are not anticipating your child remaining at St Michael’s in 2020 please notify the school by the end of term (with the exception of the current Year 6 students). We are also very full at the moment, with many families eagerly awaiting places, so advanced notice will allow us to notify parents on our waiting list.

Three-year-old Program 2020

We are still looking for more expressions of interest to get our 3YOP off the ground next year. If you or any friends may be interested, please see our website for the EOI form: https://www.stmichaelsbass.wa.edu.au/enrolment.html

Best of luck to all our students competing in the Interschool Athletics carnival next Friday!  Please be aware that due to the carnival there will be no assembly next week.
