Term 4 Week 2
Thursday 16th October 2014
We are very pleased to announce that Jen, our counsellor who has supported us for quite some me here at Lockhart, has now been
employed by the Catholic Schools Office in a pastoral care role for our school for one day per week for the dura on of this term. We
will con nue to have a counselling service from Centacare but are thrilled that Jen is able to con nue with us here at St Joseph’s.
Thank you to those who have sent in items for our Samaritan’s Purse Appeal. If you are able to send in any items to help with our
shoeboxes, it would be greatly appreciated. These items need to be at school by Monday, October 27.
We have heard some wonderful reports about the 4/5/6 excursion to Borambola. Well done to the students for their par cipa on and
behaviour and thanks to Mitch and Carlie for their me and energy. You can see some of the wonderful ac vi es that they par cipated in later in the newsle er.
The school has been asked to make a scarecrow for the Lockhart Community Vegetable Garden. Thanks to Sophie (and her mum and
dad) for their assistance with this project – our scarecrow (Alfred) looks fabulous!
The permission note for our Beechworth excursion has been a ached to this newsle er. I have included an agenda later in this column. What an exci ng day!!
Next Tuesday, we will be holding an MJR Day with John Goonan, our Catholic Mission representa ve at the CSO.
The theme for Catholic Mission Month of October is ‘Sock It to Poverty’ so we would love the students to wear
some crazy socks on that day. We will also have a shared lunch on that day so the students will not need to bring
their own lunch.
Next Thursday and Friday, Carlie and Helene will be a ending the Connec ons Spirituality program with other
staff across the Diocese.
Please don’t forget about the following dates at our school that we would love you to join us forParents maths a ernoon – 3.30pm
