From the Principal
Grenfell Show
On behalf of the St Joseph’s Community Council I would like to give a sincere thank you to all parents, carers, family members and friends that helped support our fundraising endeavours at the Grenfell Show. With your help, we provided catering for the luncheon room with an amazing array of cakes, slices, biscuits, sandwiches and soups, as well as provided a bbq outside. The feedback we have had about our food, presentation and service has been commendable. This could not have been achieved without your help, so thank you!
A special thank you to the Community Council Show Planning Team, in particular Davina and Sheridan, for organising such a fantastic event. Well done!
We are still finalising numbers, but the profit margin will be shared at our Open Community Council meeting early next term.
Thank you to all staff, especially Mrs Green, for their hard work preparing items for our school display. It was a wonderful effort and represented our school well.

I hope to see you all there!
For prospective parents and their families, a Kindergarten Information Session will be held in the K/1 room at 5.30pm, before joining current families for the BBQ.
