Welcome back to all the returning students and staff, and welcome to the new members of our community. The P&F Executive would like to welcome everyone to the new academic year, and we hope it will be a rewarding year for everyone. If we can help in any way please don't hesitate to contact us through the school email address. Your email will be forwarded to us and we'll then try to assist where we can.

Canteen

Our Canteen Manager Vicki has been working hard over the summer break to refresh the menu and maintain the high standards of  nutrition that are required. Some may be disappointed at the replacement of favourite drinks or food items, but this has occurred so that we comply with the Healthy School Canteen strategy of the NSW government (https://healthyschoolcanteens.nsw.gov.au/).

P&F AGM

Notice is hereby given that the Annual General Meeting for the St Johns Catholic High School Parents and Friends Association will be held on Monday, 18 February 2019 at 6.00 pm in the staff room.

At this meeting reports will be delivered from the President, Treasurer and school Principal prior to all positions on the Executive being vacated. Elections will then be held to fill the Executive positions. The positions are: President, Vice President, Treasurer, Secretary, and Parent Liaison & Publicity Officer. The duty statements for each role can be found in the constitution or in the minutes from previous meetings.

All positions are open to parents and care givers within our school community with the President role requiring previous experience on the committee.

Please consider standing for any of the positions as the school genuinely appreciates the support provided by the P&F. Being on the committee doesn't involve sacrificing endless hours - perhaps an hour or 2 each month, and the personal rewards of being a part of this important group far out way any physical rewards.

Next General Meeting 

Following the AGM a General meeting will be held to start the year off for the newly elected committee. This meeting is generally brief, but it does offer the opportunity for parents and care givers to ask general questions to the committee and/or Principal in a non-judgmental environment. Who knows - your question may be the same that others want to ask but may not be able to!!

See you at the meetings!!!

Mr John Barak
P&F President
