Interactive Board

Broken Interactive Board

One of our classroom Interactive Boards was recently replaced due to an unknown issue. Rather than immediately disposing of the board, I am seeking any parents/carers that might have interest in trying to repair the board for use in your home. The board will not turn on and it is suspected that the board has a power issue.

Please call the school and ask for Jon Liddle if you have any interest in picking up the Interactive Board.

Remote Learning Chrome Book Hire

02 Dec 2021

Return of Loaned Chromebooks & Chargers

Thank you for your support during the remote learning period. During this time St Anthony’s lent out several Chromebooks to assist in connecting students to their online learning. Since then, we have allowed a cool-down period for students to return to school and hold onto the devices in case a return to remote learning occurred. We are asking that all loaned Chromebooks and accessories be returned to the front office as soon as possible. Unfortunately, the number of school owned devices since remote learning have decreased due to faults and damage, so any returns would be appreciated.

Below is a photo of the two different chargers we use, which might help identify them.

Year 5 Journey with Jesus Retreat - Tuesday 7th Dec

30 Nov 2021

Dear Year Five Families,

Next Tuesday, the 7th of December, our Year Five students will be engaging with the Journey with Jesus retreat.

The Journey with Jesus retreat is a faith-filled experience for the Year Five students of St Anthony's. Led by an enthusiastic team of youth ministers, the day is packed with games, activities, dramas, videos and talks that all look into the Gospel messages of God’s love, salvation and forgiveness. This retreat is a provocation for their role as school leaders next year.

IMPORTANT PRACTICAL INFORMATION

Where: STA School Hall

When: Tuesday, 7th December (within school hours)

What to wear: It will be a uniform free day for our Year Five students (however, students still need to wear closed in shoes and attire that meets the requirements of our SunSmart policy - covered shoulders, no exposed backs or midriffs)

What to bring: Fruit break, recess, water bottle and something to write with.

Lunch: A pizza lunch will be provided. Please email beth.lehmensich@cg.catholic.edu.au if your child has any dietary requirements.

This is the second Journey with Jesus Retreat day for St Anthony's. Our first was a great success and we are really looking forward to seeing our students flourish as faith leaders within our school and the wider community.

If you have any questions about the Journey with Jesus retreat, please don't hesitate to contact me via ClassDojo or email at beth.lehmensich@cg.catholic.edu.au.
