Congratulations to our Confirmation class of 2023. The children were confirmed during a beautiful ceremony on Thursday evening. Thank you to Anne Leet and the Year 6 teachers for preparing the children for this very small occasion.

Staffing News

Today was our beautiful and amazing Sue McCluskey's last day at leaving Mother Teresa School. Sue is taking up a position at the Department of Defence. Sue has been at MTS for over 8 years I know we are all going to miss her very much. Sue has been the face of Mother Teresa, greeting and welcoming families, answering all your questions, and caring for your children.

Mrs Steph Reed, who currently covers two days in our student reception and three days as CSA will move across to take up the front office reception position, until the end of the year. We have advertised to replace Steph's classroom support hours.

Goodbye Message from Mrs McCluskey

As I say my last goodbye to the students, colleagues, friends and families of MTS, I would like to pass on my sincere thanks to all of you who have filled my bucket over the past 8 & 1/2 years.  I take with me many wonderful memories and will treasure all the moments we chatted, laughed, smiled, cried, and embraced everything that is life at MTS. I wish everyone all the best and am sure that I will see you again one day.

ELC Open Days

ELC refurbishment and car park arrangements 

With the plans of the ELC refurbishment approved it is expected that construction fencing will be erected, early next week. This will block off the access driveway in front of the ELC. This will mean that ELC parents will need to park in the car park and school afternoon pick-up for everyone will be at the back of the school near the covered walkway.
