Principal's Welcome
Welcome to the St Kieran Catholic Primary School Website.
Our Vision Statement for St Kieran is To develop our community based on the teachings of Jesus and the love of learning.
In terms of road and parking courtesy; what way is the behaviour of a number of parents reflective of this statement?
What are we teaching our children in terms of dealing with difficult situations, problematic people or just being old fashioned patient? As a school we recognise parents are the first educators of children; what hope will our road safety have in the future?
Our Values are:
Demonstrating respect; Building trust; Taking responsibility; Valuing family; Striving for personal excellence; Celebrating childhood; Caring for the environment; Living as Jesus would want.
Do your children see these values in the way you treat others when coming through pick up, parking in the streets, queuing along Tyler Street, leaving driveways free?
Are you a parent your child can be proud of in terms of the way you treat others between 8.00am and 9.00am and 2.30pm to 3.30pm?
From my point of view what absolutely befuddles me is that I would not want to work in any other community as this one which is so generous, giving and great EXCEPT BETWEEN THE HOURS OF DROPPING OFF AND PICKING UP STUDENTS. Maybe we could all adopt the Aussie value of giving a fair go. This would allow all of us to be confident of the safety of students during those most vulnerable hours.
PLEASE THINK ABOUT THIS and see if we can’t fix this area once and for all!
Warm regards
