Dear Parents, Carers and Friends,

Thank you to everyone who helped make this Catholic Schools Week so special.

Our community came together on several occasions to celebrate our beautiful school and in particular, share and celebrate in our students’ learning and school life.

We asked some of our Yr 5 students What Makes Holy Cross a Great Catholic School?

When I was arriving to school this morning, I saw one of my class mates helping a kindy student. He was carrying her bag and she was looking up at him. When I saw that, I thought straight away, ‘Now I understand why our teachers are so proud of us’. I am very proud of my school too. Kitty

When I came into Kindergarten I felt like I didn’t fit in because I didn't know anybody but then my teachers and my buddy helped me to fit in and they have helped me to become who I am today. Lenny

The teachers make learning really fun. They respect you just as you are - and even if you are good or bad at something, they will always help you to succeed. Dominic

As soon as I joined Holy Cross in Year 3, I saw so many new opportunities for learning and I felt like I was really helped to improve my learning. The staff and students made me feel very welcome. Matthew

When I was in Kindergarten I felt like I didn’t fit in at lunch times, but then my kindergarten friends came up and asked me to play and they were all very kind. Izzy

We learn Religious Education in a fun way and we learn how to follow in the footsteps of Jesus. Harry

Parent - School Partnership Framework

"We must take note of the changes that have affected both the family and the school, and renew the commitment to constructive collaboration - for the benefit of children and young people" - Pope Francis.

On Monday we officially launched the Diocesan Parent-School Partnership Framework at Holy Cross. Thank you to the parents who came along to the launch and for sharing their insights into what we are currently doing very well at Holy Cross and identifying areas we can work on together to improve our partnership. The Framework can be downloaded from the Catholic Education Website and this link:

FETE

Our Fete is fast approaching and our students are becoming very excited. There are still a number of volunteers needed to help out on the day. If parents could set aside an hour or so to man a stall we would be very grateful. Please inform the school office.

Please note, the canteen will be closed for Lunch 2, next Friday due to Fete preparations.
