ANNOUNCEMENTS

Dinner Auction Meeting
A reminder to those people involved with the auction that there will be a meeting this Friday night 11th April. It will commence at 8.15pm (following the Holy Hour) in the College secondary library.

Children of Mary
A reminder that this Sunday is Children of Mary Sunday.

Parents & Friends Meeting:
This Monday evening 14th April at the school at 7.30pm.
Any agenda items are to be emailed to Geraldine Freriks by Sunday 13th April.

PARENT/TEACHER INTERVIEWS
Primary Interviews will take place on Tuesday of next week. Forms were sent home yesterday with every student in the Primary School. Only one needs to be filled in and returned to the College office. Appointments are allocated based on the order in which these appointment sheets are returned. Preference is given to those however, who live longer distances from the College. This enables these parents to attend the interviews when picking up their children. All families are expected to attend interviews with the teacher for their children in the Primary School.

Secondary appointment offers were on the interim reports and these will take place on Tuesday 22nd April. Appointment times will be sent home by the end of next week. Please be sure to return all slips off these reports even if you are not attending an interview for your child. There is provision where the parent is asked to sign the report and to return that section of the report.

CHOIR
Senior girls choir practice will be held every Wednesday afternoon from 3:15pm - 4:00pm.

DINNER AUCTION
It’s this time of the year again, when we are asking for items suitable for our major fundraiser for the year. Please give your major items to Kees Van Strijp and your silent auction items to Suzie Phillips. As this is our major fundraiser for the year we ask all families in our school and parish to please be generous with your donations. If every family donated something, no matter how small (or large), do you realize how much easier this would make the committees job? Every item counts towards making the night a success. Thank you and God Bless.

The WINGED WATCHMAN
Mr Fox urgently requires the loan of copies of The Winged Watchman by Hilda Van Stockum. Just bring them to school. Thanks!

SCHOOL PHOTOS
Packs have been sent home today with the students. Even if you are not ordering it is required that you send the envelopes back to the College. These are all bar-coded and are required on the day of the shoot. We also ask that unless your child is sick on the day that every effort be made to have all of your children present at school. Please try to avoid any appointments on that day. Photo day is 30th April.
Family Forms are available from the College office.

UNIFORM LOAN
In August we have 6 girls coming from Germany. They will be visiting for 3 months. In that time they will need the use of a school uniform. They will need both winter and summer. In order to save on costs are there any parents who have any component of the girls uniform who are willing to loan these during that time? Please contact Pauline Phillips if you can help.

CASH FOR CARTRIDGES
Please don’t throw them in the bin, bring them into school.
Inkjet, laser, fax and photocopier cartridges are all worth money. Please leave at the College office.
