Information Items:
- We are reminded that our Pastoral Theme this year is Call to Belong. As a school community, we want to ensure that EVERYONE feels welcome. One way that we do this is by staff displaying an inclusive flag, that lets other know that we all belong and they are welcome. There is no place for hate at St Clement’s.
- We are currently running the following clubs: Dungeons and Dragons, Pokeman, Chess, Board Games, Outdoors, Garden, ECO, Announcements, Kindergarten Helpers, and Gaga Pit Referees.
- SPORTS: In the hopes of encouraging physical fitness, good sportsmanship, skills building, and providing structure… Looking ahead in the Athletics Calendar, this is coming up:
- May 4 – Folk Dance (in the evening)

- May 31 – Cross Country
- June 13 – Intermediate Co-Ed Frisbee
