PASTORAL CARE
I would like to take this time to wish everyone a safe and peaceful Christmas break filled with happiness and joy. Please take this time to stop and rest, be thankful for all that you have and enjoy those around you. Remember, it is not what we receive at this time that counts, but what we are able to give to others.
While we have had some testing times this year, I would like to thank all students and their parents/carers who have dedicated themselves to making St John’s a truly amazing community. In particular, I would like to say a special thank you to all staff at St John’s, they give so much of themselves to the school and our students every single day.

Year 7, Year 10 Peer Support, Year 12 will attend school on Wednesday 29 January 2020. New students in Years 8-11 will only attend from 8.30am-10.30am.

Please note the school expectations when purchasing shoes as shoes must meet the WHS requirements as set by the school. Girls’ skirts must also be adjusted to knee length and hair will need to meet the school expectations.
FAREWELL!
On a final note, I would like to express my gratitude to Mr Nick Garner Year 12 Coordinator and Mrs Maggie Frawley Year 9 Coordinator who will both be taking a year off in 202. Your passion, dedication and enduring care for all of your students is something to be truly admired. Words cannot capture just how thankful we are for all that you have done.
On behalf of everyone; staff, students and parents, I would like to say thank you for everything you have done, everything you are and wish you all the best on your journey.
Mr. James Eirth
