JUNIOR SCHOOL NEWS - From the Deputy Head of Junior School
Communication Date Friday, 18 August 2023
The staff at Faith spent a wonderful day on Wednesday learning all about the Future of Education. We appreciate the time we had to spend together as a team to plan for the future education of young people at the College.
It was so lovely to see so many children wearing their splash of orange on ‘Bullying; No Way’ day today. A fantastic opportunity to discuss ways students can be part of the solution to bullying in schools.
Next week is Book Week and we are thrilled at how many students have already completed their competitions for this exciting week. The students have been talking about their dress ups, which we are excited to be able to celebrate with our Parade on Wednesday.

DISABILITY PARKING
It has come to our attention that there have been people parking in the Disability Parking spots without displaying their permit. Please only use these places if you have a permit to do so, and ensure your permit is displayed clearly. We have a number of children and parents who require these spots and have been unable to access them on occasion. Thank you for your ongoing consideration and support in this matter.
