From the Principal

Dear Families,

On behalf of the staff and students of St Patrick’s, I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to our wonderful Parents and Friends Committee for their incredible efforts in organising our major school raffle, Pot O’ Gold Camperdown Cash, and the much-anticipated Trivia Night fundraiser.

These events are more than just fundraisers — they are a celebration of our school spirit, community connection, and shared commitment to supporting our children’s education. Through the dedication and creativity of the P&F, we saw families, staff, and local businesses come together in a truly special way.

The Pot O' Gold Camperdown Cash Raffle and Trivia Night were not only successful in raising valuable funds for our school, but they also strengthened the important partnerships we hold with our local community. We are especially grateful to the many local sponsors who generously contributed to the events — your support reflects the heart of our close-knit town and your investment in our school’s future is deeply appreciated.

The funds raised will directly benefit our students, towards enhancing resources with vibrant spaces for all children to play and learn at St Patrick’s.

Once again, thank you to the P&F Committee, our school families, and our local supporters. These events remind us that when we work together, great things happen — for our students, our school, and our wider community.

As we move towards the end of term, a reminder that the last day of Term 3 is Thursday 18th September, with students finishing at the usual time of 3.15pm. On this day, we will also celebrate Footy Colours Day, a chance for everyone to dress in the colours of their favourite team and enjoy the fun and excitement of the footy finals season.

Thank you for your ongoing support and we look forward to finishing the term on a high note together.

Wishing everyone a safe and happy holidays.

Warm regards,

Darren

Have a great week everyone.

If you haven't paid your school fees yet, please contact the office ASAP.
If you need any assistance or have any questions please contact Debbie, thank you.

The Dino Maniacs Show

Sing and dance with baby dinosaurs

From ‘tricera-tots’ to grown-ups, Corangamite families can sing and dance along with baby dinosaur puppets during the September school holidays.

The award-winning Dino Maniacs will perform two ‘roar-some’ shows at the Theatre Royal in Camperdown on Monday 22 September.

Council Events and Creative Industries Team Leader Tammy Young said the interactive shows star Trixi the Triceratops, cheeky Tru Blu, the mischievous Naughty Joffrey, Aussie favorites Ozzi & Oi, and the newest little star, Olive the Parasaurolophus.

“Hosted by Shaun and Tara from The Dino Maniacs, this high-energy show is packed with fun, laughter, and dinosaur-themed songs that will have the kids in ‘raptors’,” Ms Young said.

“There will be plenty of surprises, laughter, and chances to get your photo taken with the six dinosaurs.

“It’s perfect for children aged 1-8 and kids at heart!

“Book now for some ‘T-rex-ellent’ entertainment.”

When: Monday 22 September 2025, 10-11 am and 1-2 pm

Where: Theatre Royal, Camperdown

Tickets: $10 adults, $5 children from events.humanitix.com/dino-baby
