Dear Parents, Carers and the St Joseph’s Community,

The veil of darkness, transformed to the brightest light.

The most dreadful end became the most beautiful beginning.

The depths of despair, fade to reveal hope everlasting.

The curse of death, defeated by eternal life.

Thank you Lord, for the wonder of Easter.

It is a strange feeling to be finishing the school term without the buzz of our students anticipating the excitement of school holidays. Whilst we are all in for a very different Easter and holiday period, I hope you manage to take some downtime to stop and focus on the positives that can come from this very difficult and unusual time. Who knows, perhaps celebrating Easter in unusual circumstances will create some new family traditions that will be passed on for years to come.

A reminder that Remote Learning Packs for next term are available from the school. If you are unable to collect your pack by tomorrow, they will be available next term. Please remember that as these packs are for Term 2, your child is not to complete any of the tasks until advised by their classroom teacher.

Following on from previous correspondence, if you believe that your child/ren will be returning to school for Term 2, and you haven't informed the school, could you please email cameron.tarrant@cg.catholic.edu.au by tomorrow. All students will be completing the same Remote Learning Program as prepared by the classroom teachers. Students attending school will be supported in this program by a roster of classroom teachers. 

Please note the first day of school / remote learning in Term 2 is Wednesday 29 April. Full details to come in a separate communication. 

Please know that we have missed the students terribly over the last two weeks. The classrooms are too quiet, the playground is too tidy and the teachers are definitely lonely! Please continue to stay safe.

Yours in Christ,

 Amy Doszpot
