PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE
Dear Parents, The process of appointment for two teaching positions for next year is now complete. I am pleased to announce that we have employed Mrs Renee Bryne-King for the Year 6 position. Renee comes to us from St Michael’s in Bassendean where she has been teaching for the last 8 years. Joining us in Year 4 next year is Miss Charlotte Allen who will be joining us from St Lawrence’s Catholic Primary in Geraldton, where she is one of the current Year 5 teachers. I am sure that everyone will make them welcome when they join us next year. We are now in the process of appointment for Year 1 next year which should be completed in the next couple of weeks. On Friday the Years 3 to 6 students performed well at our interschool games day. The day is designed for maximum participation and the students rotate through a number of different games throughout the day. We had some good results over the day and the children enjoyed the experience. Thanks to Miss Wise for organising the event. On Thursday the senior students will be joining many other schools in the annual ‘Music Count Us In’ event. We have been part of this nationwide music morning for the last 4 years and it is a great event that brings together many different schools right across Australia at one time. Look out for some media coverage of this event on Thursday as it usually gets some coverage. A huge thank you to all of the parents involved in Friday night’s Disco. Special mention to Mrs Deanne Brown who coordinated the whole event. Chris Dunning – Principal

ALL SAINTS DAY All Saints' Day , celebrated on November 1, is a day for many people of Christian faith in Australia to remember and honour the saints. Some churches hold a special service or Mass on All Saints' Day. Some Masses may feature music composed during the Renaissance. Many Christian schools may have lessons for students to learn about the role of saints in the history of Christianity. (timeanddate.com) Mrs Anna Sheehy (Assistant Principal)
ALL SOULS DAY The Catholic Church annually observes All Souls' Day on 2nd November. All Souls' Day is the day after All Saints' Day. All Souls' Day is traditionally a time for the Christian Community to remember family members and friends that have passed away, and are enjoying their heavenly reward with God, in heaven.

P&F Meeting: TBA in the School Library at 7.30pm. All Stars disco: What a great evening! Thank you to the Year 3 parents and in particular Deanne Brown for organising the SHPS All Stars disco last Friday. The hall looked amazing, the food was great, the DJ fantastic and children looked fabulous and all had a blast. Deanne put in a huge amount of work and has certainly left a tough act to follow. Thanks also to the pre-primary for assisting on the night. P&F Office bearers and committee members: The P&F does a valuable job in our school community and your support is required for the Sacred Heart P&F office bearer positions of President, Vice-President, Secretary and Treasurer in 2015. Nominations can be made at the P&F Annual General meeting which will be held on Wednesday, 26th November from 6.30pm in the School Hall. If you have any interest in nominating for these positions or as a general committee member please don’t hesitate to contact one of the existing office bearers or your P&F class representative. The P&F need you! Swimming training: The P&F is funding the hire of one lane at Beatty Park on Friday mornings ONLY (7.30am to 8am) for students in Yr 3 upwards (entrance fees will apply but spectators (parents/guardians) should not be charged). The P&F have also purchased 20 kickboards for use at swimming training – these should help those who are not strong swimmers! A special thank you to Sonia Koroll and Clairly Lance for their time and expertise in helping the children improve their swimming skills. It would be great to see as many come along to training as possible. School Fete 2015: In the coming weeks there will be some flyers sent home to families regarding sponsorship of the rides at the School Fete. We really need some businesses to get behind our day, in return there are some fantastic marketing opportunities – and as we’re a Not-for-Profit, all donations are tax deductible. Contact Alysha Cass on [email protected] for more details. School Fete Craft Group: We will once again be having a fabulous arts and crafts stall at the 2015 School Fete. We’re 12 months out and are looking for eager parents & friends to join in and assist with the creation of the goods that will be sold on the day – this is a great way to meet some likeminded parents from the school, all welcome. Contact Danielle at [email protected] for more details. Sacred Heart Annual Magazine: As many of you will be aware, Sacred Heart puts together an annual magazine which is largely made up of photos the children at events throughout the year. If you have any photos from any of these events that you are happy to share please forward to Clairly Lance at [email protected] as soon as possible. Just a reminder of some of the events - Easter egg raffle, family fun night, Mothers Day stall and Mothers Day breakfast, Adidas fun run, Bunnings sausage sizzle, IGA cake stall and sausage sizzle and Fathers day breakfast, and the two discos (gee we have been busy). Gingerbread House Workshop: For the past few years, the P&F have held a Gingerbread House Decoration Workshop in the lead up to Christmas. Unfortunately this year, our usual organisers are unable to run the workshop. The P&F are thus seeking two volunteers to take on this super-fun and super-rewarding task. The workshop is simple to run, and the lucky volunteers will be given all the instructions and guidance they require. If you can help run the Gingerbread House Decoration Workshop this year, please contact Juliet Bruining on [email protected] or 9328 3009. Fundraising: Bubbler Deals: Recently the P&F received a cheque from Bubbler Deals as part of their community fundraising.

P&F Second Hand Uniform Stall: Please note that there are now a large number of grey boys shorts and blue sports shorts in a range of sizes in the second hand uniform stall. Why not grab a spare pair or two. School banking: - School Banking takes place every Tuesday morning in the library from 8.30-9am.
