Earlier this week, students in Year 7 took home their Year 7 Vaccination Forms in preparation for their vaccination day on Friday 23 April. I would ask all parents of students in Year 7 to ensure that these forms are returned to the College office as soon as possible in order to allow us to liaise with NSW Health to finalise arrangements for the day. Students will be asked to wear their College sports uniform on this day in order to assist with the delivery of the vaccination and to ensure that they eat a suitable breakfast that morning. 

As has been communicated in recent weeks, Term 1 will conclude this coming Thursday with the annual College Cross Country Carnival. Students will be dismissed at 2pm however supervision will be provided at the College for students who are required to make their way home via the regular bus services which will be running at their normal time. 

You may have seen news reports during the week relating to a further easing of COVID restrictions in NSW. As has been the case in previous announcements, these new directives are then considered for our local context by Catholic Schools NSW and the Catholic Education Office before being forwarded to each school. Once these have been received, we will relay such information to our parent community. 

As the term draws to a close, I take the opportunity to thank all members of the College community for their support so far this year. While we have, in many cases, resumed a slight sense of normality, we continue to remain appreciative of the support that is being given towards the COVID directives that remain in place. Wishing you all a very happy Easter holiday period and look forward to seeing everyone in the new term.
