Dear Parents and Carers, 

Week 4 already! Wow we’re flying through the term. Well done to all the students on their settled approach to their learning so far this term. With so much going on in Term 4 we look forward to this continuing. Last week we welcomed Mr Brad Gaynor to the school community whilst Mr Nielsen is on leave. Students are familiar with Mr Gaynor as he has visited the school previously. Mr Gaynor is the Performance Improvement Leader from Catholic Education who supports Catholic Schools in our region. Mr Gaynor is a frequent visitor to St Mary’s, is known to staff and is looking forward to getting to know the students. If you see him around, please introduce yourself to him and make him feel welcome.  

MODUPLAY finished constructing our new playground on Friday. It looks fantastic and I’m sure the students will love the new addition to their school. Thanks again to everyone who raised money in our Colour Run last year and to our community council for its generous donation toward our project.  

Have a great week everyone and remember my door is always open!! 

Regards 

Damian Collins  

Assistant Principal
