Our students have been preparing for the House Cross Country Event to be held on the school grounds on Thursday, 13th May. This is a whole school event where all students are encouraged and well supported in their participation. Students may wear colors in support of their House. 
Qualifiers will go on to represent St John’s at the District Cross Country event on Friday 23rd May at Cardinia Recreation Reserve.
Preparations are underway for celebrating the Sacrament of Confirmation this month. 
There are two Parish Masses at which candidates will be receiving the Sacrament at St John’s Church Koo Wee Rup, Sunday 23rd May and Sunday 30th May, both at 9.30am.
We pray for these young people and trust the Holy Spirit will be a guiding influence in their thoughts and actions throughout their lives.
Please take note that due to a school closure day on Monday 19th April, students commence Term 2 on Tuesday 20th April.
*School Photos have been scheduled for Tuesday 20th April, so remember Winter Uniforms for students please.
