Yuma! The Culture Club have been exploring ideas for our next NAIDOC Week project – it is going to be a Yarning Circle! We are very excited to share this with you. We will be looking to organise a Yarning Circle Team in Term 1, 2025 to help bring our project to life. Mrs Stonham, our Project Manager, will be calling for help in early Term 1.
In the meantime, Culture Club want to know what our community would like to see included in our St Bede’s Yarning Circle. We want to know:
- What materials could be used
- Where it should be located
- What plants and natural features could be included (we have been looking at Ngunnawal plants)
- About designs for the circle
If you have some great ideas, please draw them up and bring them into school and come visit the Culture Club to share your ideas. Culture Club is on both Tuesday’s W8 and W9.
Thanks so much! We can’t wait to see your ideas.

We would like to inform you that Catholic Education are considering the introduction of a new fee that may be added to the school fees to support building and capital works projects within the school system. This fee will be allocated towards enhancing and maintaining our school facilities. This fee is a compulsory fee that replaces the voluntary building contribution.
Details of the fee will be provided once it has been finalised by Catholic Education, and we will ensure you are notified in advance of any changes to your fee schedule. I believe it will be approximately $300 in 2025 and will increase in 2026 and 2027. The fee will be charged each term and will be itemised on your fee statement.
Thank you for your understanding and continued support.
Parent Conferences will be held from Monday 2 December to Wednesday 4 December. These meetings are optional in Term 4 and can be made via the Compass Parent Portal. Session bookings are open. To book a session, please click on more and navigate to Conferences. If you are unable to schedule a time, please contact your classroom teacher via email.
If you met in Week 4 or Week 6 with the class teacher and Mrs Elliott, there is no need to book another meeting session.
Conferences will be locked on Sunday 3pm 2 December.
Catholic Education have now confirmed the term dates for 2025. Please note that the dates below are student related dates only (first and final day for students).
Did you know that our school calendar is located in 2 convenient locations to assist you in knowing whate events are taking place at St Bede's? You have access to our school calendar in the Compass App and the school website.
A huge congratulations to our own Neve D from Year 2 who came first place in the Braidwood Airing of the Quilts Apron Challenge (youth division). There were so many beautiful entries, but Neve's was picked for its happiness and joy, which is so emblematic of Neve herself.
For her efforts she won a $30 voucher at the Braidwood Chocolate Shop. Well done Neve!
