FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL TERM 2
We look forward to welcoming all students back to school on Monday 17 April.
CHRISM MASS INVITATION
Bishop Michael has extended an invitation for all to join in the celebration of the Chrism Mass, being held at 10:00am on Thursday, 30 March at St Joseph’s Cathedral. This is a marvellous opportunity for the Diocese to gather with our clergy as they conclude their time of pre-Easter gathering. At the Mass, the oils of Catechumens and of the sick will be blessed, and the chrism consecrated, to be used in Sacraments across all our communities for the next year. For those unable to attend in person you can watch the Mass live, or later, via the St Joseph’s Cathedral YouTube channel.
This is an important celebration for our Diocese and as we lead into Holy Week.
EASTER JOURNEY
We invite you and your families to walk the Easter journey at these services and Mass times to meet the Risen Christ this Easter. Please click on the link below.

Year 7 & 9 NAPLAN test results are expected early in Term 2. These reports will be shared with families via Parent Lounge, with hard copies available upon request. From this year, results will be published using a four-level proficiency standard for each year level. The four levels are:
- Exceeding

The individual student reports will continue to show the national average, the range of achievement for the middle 60% of students in the year level and a dot placement for individual students to indicate their achievement against these measures. More information will be communicated soon.
