Principal's Message Term 2 Week 7 2024
Dear Parents,
As the bitter winter settles in we keep in mind all of those in our community who are feeling under the weather at the present time. A reminder to please keep any sick children at home and inform the school of their absence via the COMPASS app.
Parent Teacher Interviews
Next week classroom teachers will meet with parents to celebrate the achievements of their children for the first half of the school year. This is an opportunity for parents and teachers to unite, collaborate and set targets for the remainder of the year, solidifying the notion that it truly does take a village to raise a child.
A reminder that if you have been invited to attend a personal plan meeting in Weeks 9 or 10 then it is unnecessary to also book a parent interview in Week 8.
School Uniform
As the weather gets colder we continue to accumulate more lost items of clothing. In order for these precious and costly items to be returned to their rightful owners we require them to be clearly labelled please.
A reminder that during June and July hats are not required at school. For more information about our uniform policy please click the link below:

God Bless

11th Sunday in Ordinary Time
16 June 2024 - Year B
“The mustard seed, the smallest of all the seeds, grows into the biggest shrub of all.”
Something to Think About
Can you think of some little things that grow into very big things?
The Story
In today’s story, Jesus is explaining what the kingdom of God is like. Jesus says the kingdom of God is like a small, small seed growing into a very large tree. From little things, big things grow. A small thing like a smile can bring joy and friendship to someone who is sad. When these small, kind actions spread throughout the world, God’s kingdom grows!
Peace and best wishes,
Anne Leet REC

The MTS Yearbook is Back!
Mother Teresa School Yearbook has been confirmed for 2024 and we would love your help to make sure it’s amazing again this year.
We are calling on parents, caregivers, teachers and students to provide photos they have already taken throughout the year.
We want photos from sporting events (including the swimming carnival, athletics and cross country carnivals, activities, awards, camp, excursions, confirmation and any other photos you would care to share with us for inclusion.
The Yearbook has always been wonderfully received in the school community and are great keepsakes for your children to reflect on their journey here and we want to make sure everything and everyone is included.
If you’re attending school events (sporting, social etc) and you like taking photos (or have attended events earlier in the year), we’d love for you to snap and send a few back to us to use in the yearbook (appropriate permissions will be sought).
If you can help us with the above, please reach out and contact the Yearbook team via the yearbook email mtsyearbook00@gmail.com
Kind regards,
Your yearbook committee.
