Please return ticket stubs, money & unsold tickets in an envelope to the school office by TUESDAY, 2ND DECEMBER. Please write Name, Class & Mobile on each ticket stub. Additional bundles are available at the School Office.

Just a reminder to families that we have a School closure day on Friday 5th December.
Staying on top of digital changes can be challenging, especially for busy parents and carers. We came across these videos, produced by the eSafety commission, that may help.
Dear Families,
As outlined in previous communications, we are in the process of replacing Operoo for permissions and notices with nForma Parent Portal. This requires parents to ensure that they have access to the nForma parent Portal before the 4th December.
St Marys is a SUN SMART SCHOOL. As such students and staff are required to wear sun smart hats from 1st September to the end of April regardless of whether the sun is out or not.
Congratulations to our October Aussie of the Month students - Vaiva, Harry & Leda.
Term 4 has kicked off brilliantly, and as the weather begins to warm up, students can look forward to cooling down with a refreshing icy pole. Our senior student leaders will be selling icy poles for $1 each lunchtime from Monday to Thursday.
Fantastic News!
