FROM THE APA
Welcome back to another exciting term at Holy Spirit. We especially would like to welcome our new families to the school community. Seven new students begin their time with us as well as Phil Clem (6D teacher) as Mrs Angela Bourne takes maternity leave.
The students in our upper school have continued their morning runs around Queensland this week. At 8am, students run, walk, skip around a set course and clock up the kilometres to see how far they can travel. Great to see so many students joining in, especially on those chilly mornings. If any student would like to join, the students meet Mr Martin, Mr Place or Ms Egelton in the Hall from 8am.
As the temperatures drop and we dig out those school jumpers, please remember that the uniform policy states plain red jumpers or red jumpers from School Locker are to be worn at Holy Spirit. The cold weather appears to be here for a short period but can sneak up on us sometimes.
We would love to thank those families using the Stop Drop and Go areas. Guidelines provided to us from the Catholic Education Office still asks adults, including parents to minimise entry into our school to comply with Covid 19 restrictions in Catholic Schools. Lots of families are taking advantage of the wonderful supervision provided at our waiting areas. Albert Street is open and not as busy as many believe it to be. The Church car park is running smoothly with our new routines and Hatchett Street is pumping along as usual. Thank you for keeping our school community safe.
Happy Days
Paul Martin
