Dear McAuley Families

We continue to work towards a much needed holiday break. Please be sure that your sons and daughters are well organised and on top of things as time moves on. Being well organised and having due dates bring security and comfort as part of our daily lives. Teachers are working to have reports ready to go home on Thursday Week 10 (02 July) which will be followed by parent Teacher Interviews in Term 3. 

Secondary Reports will provide results on all Subject areas with an A - E grade with no comments.  Primary Reports will grade the subjects of Religion, English and Mathematics on an A - E scale and will have no comments.

Uniform Sub-Committee:  Thank you to those who responded and sent their thoughts to the Uniform Survey that closed yesterday.  This is the first step in our consultation process and will inform next directions and plans for a uniform that is current, affordable and promotes a sense of unity for our students.

Community Council AGM:  A reminder about our Community Council AGM to be held in the Secondary Staffroom today (Thursday) at 5.00pm. 

School Fees:  A reminder that fee payments are due for those who do not contribute via regular direct debit. As always, please don’t hesitate to contact me should fees be an issue for your family. 

Enrol Now:  We are working on our 2021 Enrolment campaign in the local press and radio.  Afternoon Open Tours are available in the coming weeks for families to tour the school and find out more about what McAuley can offer. Please encourage family and friends to contact the school to book.

I visited the Year 6 classes at Adelong, Batlow and Gundagai this week as well as meeting the Gundagai Community Council to promote Year 7 as an excellent choice for Secondary Education.  It was terrific to be so warmly welcomed by our local Catholic Schools and highlight the quality programs offered at McAuley.

Please encourage those family and friends you know with children starting Kindergarten or Year 7 next year to book a tour and complete an application online.
