Acting Principal's Report
We made it!
After 40 weeks of school, we are all too quickly coming to the end of another amazing year of learning, laughter and fun at St Thomas Aquinas.
Semester 2 Reports
Semester 2 reports were all posted out last week. All grades were posted on the same day so should be arriving this week, however, we cannot guarantee the mail.
This is the current process for reports being sent out at St Thomas Aquinas, however, we will be reviewing this next year to see if we can find an alternate method of delivery that is more efficient and cheaper.
In past years, copies of class lists for the next year have been included with end of year reports. Unfortunately, this is not the case this year as we have been advised by Catholic Education that this is a breach of confidentiality.
All students would have met their 2020 teacher at Meet the Teacher afternoon last week and would have had the chance to see which friends will be in their class for the new year.
Farewells
This week we farewell our Year 6 Graduating students off to high school. We wish them all the very best for their future learning and know that there are many wonderful things ahead for them.

We are sadly farewelling several staff members this year also.
We say a fond farewell but not goodbye to Simon Hargraves from Year 4, Ashleigh van Kemenade from Year 6, Jake Wenger our Youth Minister, Cathy Berry our Music teacher for Years 4-6 and Anne Gowen our Religious Education Coordinator and Indigenous Education Officer.
