Congratulations to all children and staff involved in the process. It is a wonderful group of student leaders for 2022. We look forward to the next stage of the process with Sport Leaders over the coming weeks.

Thank you to the families that completed the parent input into classes Google Form. We value the information you have shared with us to assist when forming groups. Teachers will be working on this over the coming weeks.

Hampers

This year the major act of service that our students and families make to our Parish Christmas Hamper Appeal has needed to adapt again due to COVID-19 restrictions. The way in which we are able to support this is similar to 2020. We will assemble identical, generic style specific food hampers. There will be only non-perishable food items and vouchers for fruit/vegetables and meat, no gifts this year.

We are going to have an out of uniform day on Thursday 18 November for the donations.

A note will be coming home today to outline what your child's nominated grocery item will be.

Parent Portal for School Reports. 

Due to blended learning in Term 3, we are again offering a comment only report for all students in Semester Two. This will include comments on English, Mathematics and a General Comment which will also mention Religious Education. This format is very similar to the 2020 format used in Semester One. We sincerely thank the parents who had provided feedback on the parent portal for reporting, we are always using your feedback to help inform our future processes. This semester all reports will be provided electronically unless otherwise requested. To access the report please see below.

The Parent Portal is a secure web based application which contains information about the school and your child, including student reports, NAPLAN results and class and teacher information.

An account needs to be created as a first step. For security reasons the username for this account must be your email address recorded at the school. Please be aware our system sometimes has issues with both hotmail or outlook email accounts. If you have any issues logging in, please contact the office during business hours. The process is as follows:

1. Log in to http://parent.lism.catholic.edu.au and create an account with your email address as the username. This link is also available on the home page of our School App - Parent Portal - Register.
2. An email will be sent to this address stating that a new account has been created and includes instructions to activate your account by following the embedded link.
3. If the email does not arrive check your spam folder.
4. You will be prompted to create a password and to confirm this password.
5. Select the blue log in button. Add the username and new password created in step 4
6. Click on the Schoolworx icon to enter the Schoolworx parent portal.
7. Select your child.
8. Log out when done.
