Newsletter: Term 2, Week 2

From the Co-Principals' Desk:

Dear Families,

As our time here at Creswick draws to a close, we would like to take a moment to express our gratitude for the warm welcome and support we have received from the St. Augustine's community. It has been a pleasure to work with your children and to witness their enthusiasm for learning. 

Shaun and I have been impressed by the involvement of families in the life of the school. It is evident that everyone is committed to providing the best possible education for the students and ensure the community thrives.

We are grateful for the opportunities we have had to collaborate with colleagues, parents, and students during this term. The positive and supportive atmosphere has made our transition to commence the 2023 school year at St. Augustine's seamless.

We take this opportunity to wish the community of St. Augustine's every success for the future and we will be sure to keep in touch as the year progresses.
