YEAR 12 FINISH 

This week saw the end of formal schooling for our Year 12 group. The various Graduation events were dignified and memorable. Special mention must go to the Graduation Mass and Ceremony on Tuesday night. It was a highlight.

The real spirit of this group shone through with the dress up parade and photos on Tuesday afternoon.

This group of students has left a lasting and positive impression on the school. We hold high expectations that they will do themselves and St John’s proud in their exams.

MR MARSHALL LEAVE TERM 4 – WEEKS 1 - 4

The Principal of Corpus Christi Catholic High School is taking four weeks leave at the start of Term 4. I have been asked by Catholic Education to look after the school during that time. I am pleased to announce that Mr Eirth will be the Acting Principal of St John’s in my absence. Sincere congratulations to James.

This request demonstrates the confidence that Catholic Education has in both Mr Eirth and the total staff and the direction in which the school is moving. St John’s is clearly a good place, strong boundaries, peaceful, wonderful students and staff and supportive parents. As we move forward we are aiming to keep all of those things but also to improve the student educational outcomes and academic results.

I wish the school community a safe and happy break and look forward to seeing all in Week 5.

Mr Wayne Marshall
