These newarrangements could have significant consequences for the funding received by our school and it is vital that our schoolcommunity is aware of the facts about school funding. I will be seeking your support to defend the right of our school toreceive the government funding it needs to continue to offer a quality education, while keeping our fees as low as possible.There has already been a lot of misinformation about school funding in the media. In particular, claims have been madethat Catholic and other nongovernment schools receive more funding than state schools. These claims are simply wrong.Students in Catholic schools receive only three quarters of the government funding given to students in governmentschools. Over the coming months, I will provide you with more detailed information about funding in our school newsletter.I encourage you to take an active interest in this information and be ready to participate in this funding debate.More information about Catholic School Funding can also be found at: www.fundinginfo.catholic.edu.auDEPUTY PRINCIPALUpcoming dates - Term 3Wednesday, August 15 th Staff PD Afternoon.Thursday, August 30 th Parent / Teacher Interviews for Years 7 to 10.Friday, August 31 stMid Term Break – no classes.Students will have a shortened 6 period day on August 15 th & 30 th .
