Mothers' Day Apology
Dear Parents and Carers,
Thank you so much to all of our families that joined us for breakfast this morning. It was lovely to welcome you beyond the gates and be able to celebrate our mothers and mother figures today.
We are sincerely sorry for the issues around the hot beverage orders. We have learnt a lot from this morning and will work to ensure there are no repeats of this error.
If you ordered a hot beverage and did not receive it, there are two options:
- Email the front office and request that your payment be deducted from your child’s school fees.
- Alternatively, we will donate any other payments to the National Breast Cancer Foundation. If you would like to take up this option, you do not need to contact us.
Again, we apologise for this error.
We look forward to the next part of our Mothers’ Day celebrations with our liturgy, led by Year 2, beginning at 12:00pm today. Here is the link again for those joining us via Zoom: https://cgcatholic.zoom.us/j/92611174122

ELC - Mothers Day Breakfast
The ELC team and children look forward to our Mums, Grandmothers and Mother Figures joining us tomorrow morning between 8:30am-9:30am for a continenetial breakfast.
Mothers' Day Breakfast and Liturgy - TOMORROW!
Dear Parents and Carers,
We are very excited to be celebrating our beautiful mothers and mother figures tomorrow!
While we are able to have you join us on the school grounds (not a drive thru breakfast as we did last year) there are still some COVID related procedures we need to adhere to.
All adults (anyone over 16 years) are required to check in using the Check in CBR app. If you don't have the app, there will be devices available for you to still check in.
We still require families to socially distance. We will try to support this with seating, but ask that you maintain the required 2 square metres currently in place for social distancing.
PRIMARY (K-6) BREAKFAST:
At the primary school, our staff will be madly working the BBQ with our team from Al CaChino's Cappuccinos making delicious hot beverages.
Due to the number of hot drinks ordered, there WILL BE DELAYS ON HOT DRINKS. We ask that you please be patient with us as we are doing our best to ensure everyone is able to join us tomorrow.
Our breakfast will be on the asphalt with food and drink collection points on the multipurpose courts. We will have announcements to assist if needed to avoid queueing.
ELC BREAKFAST:
For our ELC families, a beautiful breakfast spread will be on offer at the centre. If you have ordered hot drinks, they will be brought down to the ELC for you.
LITURGY (Led by Year 2):
Our beautiful Year 2 students have been preparing a lovely liturgy to celebrate our beautiful mothers and mother figures. As we are unable to have our mothers join us in the hall, this liturgy will be made available virtually via Zoom at 12:00pm. Please note, this is not recorded and will only be available to watch live at 12:00pm.
The link for the liturgy is: https://cgcatholic.zoom.us/j/92611174122
We ask that all participants ensure that they are muted for the duration of the liturgy.
We look forward to seeing you tomorrow morning and pray that the weather allows for us to enjoy some time together as a community.
Peace

Warm regards, The ELC team.
Naplan 2021
Dear Year 3 and Year 5 Parents & Carers,
NAPLAN testing begins next week. NAPLAN will be completed online, apart from the Year 3 Writing task which will be paper-based. All other testing will be submitted online. Teachers have been working hard to ensure that the students are well prepared and can perform at their best.
Please ensure that your child is well rested and has a balanced breakfast. The children may have a snack and their water bottle with them during the test. A cut up apple, strawberries, sultanas or similar foods that are not messy would be a good option.
Please ensure that your child is at school on time as this avoids undue worry on the days of the testing. If children are sick on a day of the testing we will be providing a makeup day.
NAPLAN is only a snapshot of your child’s capabilities on one day. The following testing schedule allows us to complete the testing in a timely manner and have some catch up days for children who were absent. Testing will be conducted in the mornings.
Tuesday 11 May Writing (Year 3 pencil and paper) (Year 5 Typing)
Reading (Year 3 and Year 5 online)
Wednesday 12 May Conventions of Language
Thursday 11 May Numeracy
The children will not be having homework this week.
If you have any questions about the tests please contact your child’s teacher or myself on 62314022.
Thank you for your ongoing support.
Michael Bradley
NAPLAN Coordinator
