Welcome back to Term Two! We hope you had a restful break and a happy and Holy Easter with your loved ones. We look forward to an exciting term of learning at St Thomas More's and gathering as a community at our whole school events of Mother's Day, the Athletics Carnival and our St Thomas More Feast Day.

Staffing News - 3/4W

We are pleased to announce the appointment of Miss Jessica Campbell to the position of Classroom Teacher at St Thomas More's. Jessica comes to us from a teaching position at St Joseph's in Bombala. She will be visiting the school on Friday to meet the class and have time with Karen Tozer.

We also take this opportunity to farewell Karen Tozer as she has her last day this Friday. Karen has been with us since 2021 and has brought a wealth of knowledge in Aboriginal Education with the renewal of our acknowledgement of country and the introduction of the Gang Gang Gang being highlights of this work. We will miss Karen in our community and wish her all the best for her future endeavours.

Easter Egg Drive - A message from Penny Vanzwol

A heartfelt thank you for your incredible generosity with the Easter egg donations. Your kindness has truly made a difference.

The Vinnies School Liaison Coordinators were deeply grateful for your contributions. Your donations will not only bring joy to the young people in their programs, but also offer comfort to many families, knowing their children will receive some very special Easter treats without added financial stress.

We look forward to continuing our wonderful partnership next term.

We also want to thank you for your contribution to the St Edmund's Fundraiser for the students recovering from the accident that occured last term. With the support of Three Mills Bakery we were able to raise over $1,400 for the cause.

New Direct Debit Payment Option Coming Soon!

We have recently introduced the BPoint Enterprise Solution to manage direct debit arrangements for the payment of school fees. This will give families an additional option for fees by setting up regular payments.

What is BPoint and What Do You Need to Do?
