SCHOOL PHOTO INFORMATION

On Wednesday 25 June 2025 St Pius X will hold “School Photos day”. Students are asked to wear their full Winter school uniform with correct socks and footwear on the day of their photograph. Their hair styles should be reflective of how they wear it each day and the normal school expectations. Please do not send children in their sports uniform.

The School Photographer envelopes have been sent home with your children. Please read this important information about the upcoming photo day on June 25, 2025 and the ordering process for 2025.

Ordering Process: All purchasing for school photographs will be done online. Follow the instructions on the envelopes to place your order. Please return the envelope to school on photo day. NO CASH PAYMENTS ARE AVAILABLE.

Sibling Photos: To order sibling photos, collect an additional envelope from the school office. It contains instructions on how to order sibling photographs online. This needs to be done by Friday 20 June 2025.

Tell them from Me Survey results are in!

Thank you to all families, students, and staff who contributed to our recent Tell Them From Me surveys. These surveys provide valuable insights into how we’re travelling as a school—and how we can keep improving together.

What’s Going Well

• Students feel supported by their teachers and report strong relationships and clear behaviour expectations.
• Teachers report high levels of collaboration and a shared commitment to improving learning outcomes.
• Parents feel welcomed, can easily communicate with staff, and see our school’s Catholic identity reflected in daily life.
• Student safety — particularly travelling to and from school — was strongly affirmed by families.
• Staff and families noted the school’s strong focus on respectful behaviour and positive relationships.

Opportunities for Growth

• We are exploring ways to keep parents more informed about their child’s learning progress and how they can support learning at home.
• Our students have shared a desire for greater voice and choice in their learning, which aligns with our continued focus on student agency.
• Teachers are looking forward to deepening their use of data to further personalise learning for every student.
• We see an opportunity to build on existing parent involvement, with more flexible and inclusive options for engagement.
• Supporting student wellbeing and social-emotional growth continues to be a key focus across the school.

This valuable feedback is helping to shape our future priorities and inform whole-school planning. We look forward to continuing this journey in partnership with our community—ensuring St Pius X remains a place where every student is encouraged to grow, feel a sense of belonging, and reach their full potential.

Our ongoing work is grounded in our school vision:
"With faith as our guide, we nurture hearts and empower minds."

Together, we are committed to building a learning environment where every child is known, supported, and inspired to flourish.
