Wednesday 24 October 2018 7pm at William St
All parents, carergivers, teachers and staff are invited to attend
Dear Parents and Caregivers
This has been a very busy and productive term. I have been continually impressed by the levels of student commitment, learning and sheer joy that your children bring to our school community. We are a strong community and there are many bonds that allow us to offer the educational experience that we do. Through the dedication of our teachers and staff, the support of our parent body, St Joseph’s Memorial School continues to provide many and varied opportunities for children to develop their potential and show what they are successful at.

Dear Parents and Caregivers
Next week, students from St Joseph’s Memorial School will complete the Sacraments of Initiation by receiving Eucharist for the first time. These students have prepared for this over the past year along with students from within the Parish. Please keep the candidates in your prayers as they continue their faith journey.

Dear Parents and Caregivers
During Term 3 SJMS had 27 students from Years 4 to 7 represent the school in the South Australian Catholic Primary School Sports Association (SACPSSA) Cross Country Carnival. All students represented SJMS both on the course with outstanding effort, and off the course and exemplary behaviour.

The Annual SJMS Quiz Night was a fantastic evening full of laughs and fun!!
Thank you to the P&F Executive and Quiz Night Committee for organising.
Dear Parents and Caregivers
Every year on the first Sunday of September we celebrate Father’s Day. If we look past the commercialism, it is a day when we spoil and spend time with dad or a significant person, as a way of saying “thank you for all of the things you do for me”.

In Week 2 our Year 6 and Year 7 students were in Canberra, which was an absolute highlight and wonderful learning experience for them. This school trip was supported by PACER, which subsidises all Australian students to be able to have such an experience in the ACT.

Dear Parents and Caregivers
Last week we came together as a community to honour St Mary MacKillop on her Feast Day. The William Street campus was bursting at the seams with students and parents as we commenced the school day.
