Dear Parents and Carers

Stepping Up to the next Stage

Tomorrow morning, those Year 6 students continuing into Year 7 at Calvary are attending their final transition day.


All students, Prep – Year 5, as well as our new students attending Calvary in 2025, will be stepping up to their next Stage for the morning session. This session will be a chance for students to ask questions, make friends and feel comfortable in their 2025 stage environment. As usual, all information about 2025 classes and teachers will be emailed to parents in early January.


From 3:40pm, 2025 Year 7 parents have been invited to attend an important information session.

Volunteers – THANK YOU!

I want to take this opportunity to say thank you to the incredible people in our community who volunteer their time, helping out in so many different ways. You are a blessing – both to staff and students. For all the seen and unseen, known and unknown ways that you serve and bless our school community – THANK YOU!

Please check back to the costume requirements and make sure you have everything ready to go before Tuesday.
Here is the communication sent earlier this week with final reminders.
