Dear Parents, Guardians, and Carers,
Building Update
The frame for the roof over the existing basketball court has been installed today. We have also improved the safety of the temporary fencing by addressing the uneven ground beneath it, ensuring it is properly blocked to prevent any student access.
Cross Country
Our school Cross Country event will take place on Friday, 9 May, between 9:00 am and 11:00 am. Parents are warmly invited to attend from 9:00 am. Due to the course setup, we ask parents to view the races from the playground area behind the bunting.
Students are encouraged to dress in their house colours and complete the course independently.
All participating students will earn points for their house. Students who are unable to run can assist on the day by helping with marshalling, course supervision, and lap counting.
We are pleased to have Steam and Brew (mobile coffee van) onsite for visitors, offering hot and cold beverages in the undercover area. Please note that purchases are available for adults/visitors only, not for students.

Parents and Friends Meeting
The next Parents and Friends (P&F) meeting will be held in the staffroom, starting at 9:00 am. Please note that we may need to relocate partway through, as the performing arts room is in use and the wall between the rooms has been removed. If required, we will move upstairs to a Grade 3/4 classroom temporarily vacated for specialist lessons.
Mother’s Day
Our Mother's Day Stall will also be held on Friday, 9 May, from 11:30 am to 3:00 pm. Students who have pre-purchased a Mother's Day gift via Flexischools will collect their gifts when their class is called to visit the stall. P&F helpers will ensure a variety of gifts remain available for all students throughout the day.
All gifts are priced at $5, with students able to purchase a maximum of two gifts each.
Warm Regards,
Stephen Pitt | Principal
We have been advised that the roadworks on Copelands Road will now encrouch upon the entrance of our temporary staff carpark, and the traffic lights will be adjacent to the carpark gates and this will impact school pick-up parking availablility and traffic movements.
As a result of this, the earthmoving equipment will be parked along both sides of Copelands Road, creating congestion at afternoon school pick-up times with reduced car parking spaces.
Pick-up from Copelands Road is still possible, however families using this pick-up point are advised that there will be longer than normal delays and less parking options. We suggest that alternative pick-up arrangements are made for your child during these works. We are unaware of how long this will impact our school community and apologise for any inconviences this causes. We will provide updates as soon as they are available.
We respectfully ask that everyone observes the road rules and allow plenty of additional time for school pick-up.
Join us for a special afternoon filled with love, laughter,
and appreciation for all the amazing mothers
and special persons in our community!
We are proud to share that St Angela of the Cross Primary School has been named a Finalist in the Emerging School of the Year category at the
2025 ResourceSmart Schools Awards.
Among more than 50 participating schools, we have been recognised for our commitment to sustainability and the outstanding efforts of our students and staff.
A LETTER FROM THE VICTORIAN CATHOLIC EDUCATION AUTHORITY
Dear Parents and Carers,
Ahead of the Federal election on 3 May, we wanted to share some important information for you to consider as you make your voting decision.
Catholic schools play a vital role in Victoria’s education system with our sector educating one in five Victorian students.
Australian Government recurrent and capital funding is critical to ensuring that our students have access to the quality learning and teaching programs and facilities that they need to achieve their full potential.
In Monash there are 3,899 students across the 12 schools in the electorate from 2,599 families. All students and families in Catholic schools in Monash should be able to have confidence in ongoing Federal support for their choice to access a high-quality Catholic education.
The Liberal National coalition has committed to continuing current funding arrangements for Catholic schools into the future.
The Catholic sector has written to the Independents running in Monash and we have not received a response.
Please take this letter into consideration ahead of the Federal election and thank you for your ongoing support of your school.
Over the coming days Foundation students and new students who have joined our school community will bring home 2 laminated signs.
These signs will assist when collecting your child from Car Line.
Please display a sign in a visable place; either on your dash or on the sunvisor,
this ensures that the carline continues to flow and we are able to have your child ready and waiting.
Scholastic Book Club Issue 3 will go home with students on Wednesday April 30, orders will need to be placed by Monday May 12.
