How wonderful it was to have the chatter, laughter & smiling faces of our students back on school grounds today! It’s been a great start to Term 4 and the return of face to face learning. Teachers and students were excited to see each other and reconnect.

Fr Linh has put a video message together for all of our school families explaining why the Sacraments that the children were meant to celebrate this year are needing to be placed on hold and explaining the restrictions. 

We have returned to remote learning as of Wednesday 5th August due to Stage 3 restrictions imposed by the Victorian Government.  Whilst offsite, students will learn online via the Seesaw platform.  A very small number of staff will be onsite daily during school hours.

We have welcomed our students back for Term 3. They are enjoying activities both in the classroom and in our schoolyard. It's wonderful to see the learning which is happening all across the school.

We welcomed our Grade 3-6 students back today and they certainly seemed to enjoy finally being back on school grounds. Despite a chilly start, the beautiful sunshine allowed learning both inside and outside the classrooms. Thank you to everyone for the calm and respectful return of all students.

There is so much gratitude in our community. Thank you everyone for participating in our final community day activity. This one focused on giving thanks and being grateful. Our students thanked their teachers, family members and those important role models in the community.

The return to school was a great success today for our junior students. Drop off this morning was calm and ran smoothly. Our Foundation students were helped along the way to the classroom by their teachers in miniature!   

From dogs to cats, horses to birds, rabbits, guinea pigs, fish, turtles, hermit crabs and even a rat-it seems we have quite the menagerie of pets in our community! Thanks to everyone who again embraced our community day.Enjoy!  Video posted to our Facebook site.  

Our community is full of wonderful families. You are all what make us a community here at St Therese. Thank you to everyone who once again responded so well to our weekly community day to keep us connected, even when we are apart.  

March 6 was clean up Australia day for St Therese Year 5/6 students.We travelled by bus down to Torquay Beach and walked all the way around to Point Danger and on around to Fisho's Beach. We were cleaning up the area around the beaches and along the foreshore.

Seems a long time ago but...What a lovely afternoon it was for a picnic!Year 6 and their Foundation buddies enjoyed an afternoon of fun and games followed by a picnic on the St Therese oval. It was a lovely opportunity for the buddies to meet each other's parents and for the parents to meet each other too.Lots of fun was had by everyone!

Our students and staff have enjoyed a great first week! The students have immersed themselves back into school life and have reacquainted themselves with school routines and friends and are getting to know their new teachers.
