New Principal appointed
The Board are delighted that Ashley Keane, from Our Lady of Hope School (OLOH) at Greenwith has won the position of Principal at St Pius X School from 2022. This is an exciting time for our School, as we acknowledge the great leadership of Greg during his time at St Pius X, and we warmly welcome Ashley, our new Principal.

Sports Day
Sports Day was a great event, held over 2 days, which the children thoroughly enjoyed. It was also wonderful to see so many parents come along, which really helped create a strong sense of community. 

Little Sprouts Kitchen excursion - Receptions
It was reported that Reception classes went on their first excursion earlier in this term. The children thoroughly enjoyed their visit to the Botanic Gardens. Thank you to the parents who volunteered.

Staffing & Allocation of Children into ClassesLeadership are really excited about the quality of teaching and support staff for 2022. It was reported that Teachers are currently allocating children to classes in readiness for next year.

Building Progress
We had a quick inspection of the new building, which is coming along well. The Board are really excited by the new teaching spaces and were particularly impressed with the new terrace upstairs. This new terrace area will host activities like STEM, with this space being another key differentiator for our school. We are on track to host the STEM Showcase in the new building on November 24^th. It was also reported at the meeting, that the school will hold off from moving classes into the building until the end of school year. This will avoid having to move some classes twice.
