Goodbye and Good luck



Sadly we say goodbye to Angus and the Kite family. We know that they have established many friendships during their time at St Michael’s.
We wish the family well in their new endeavours. We especially wish Angus well settling into his new school. We hope he will contact us later in the year to let us know how he is going.

Week 7 Homework (or lack thereof!)

Dear Parents,

I apologise that students' Homework Books and Readers did not go home today. I was not able to return them to school in time. Tomorrow I will send home Homework Books for students to complete Contract 17 if they are able to, along with 1 or 2 books. Of course we understand if students are not able to complete these this week though.

Thank you for your understanding,

Mrs Robinson
