Principal’s Report Dear Parents, Students and Friends of the College, We were fortunate with the weather on Friday 6 March at our annual Athletics Carnival and the behaviour of students and the leadership of senior boys was excellent. On Thursday we celebrated Edmund Rice Day which commenced with a full school Eucharist in the Br O S Adams Centre. Thank you for supporting our charity fundraising for the day. Hopefully, in future newsletters I can provide you with the outcome. I am pleased to inform the community that the City of Greater Geelong has issued a building permit for the Chapel at Westcourt and that work is about to commence. I will keep you informed of progress over the coming months. Our annual Open Day will be held on Monday 23 March and the following day our music students are departing for a tour of New Zealand. The tour will involve some sightseeing, performance and masterclasses. We wish them well. As the Term draws to a close, I remind you about Parent-Teacher interviews which will take place on Thursday 26 & Friday 27 March. It is important that you encourage your son to attend with you, so that you hear and have the opportunity to ask questions about, the same information.There are no appointments and all staff will be in attendance. I wish everyone well for the forthcoming Easter break and hope that you experience something of the joy of the risen Christ. Students resume Monday 13 April. Paul Tobias - Principal www.sjc.vic.edu.au
