Join Us for Our AGM – A Night to Shape the Future of St Raphael’s
We warmly invite all parents and caregivers to attend our Annual General Meeting (AGM) on Tuesday, 25 March at 6:00 pm. This is a significant evening for our school community, where we will come together to reflect on our journey and look ahead to an exciting future.
One of the key highlights of the night will be the official launch of our new Strategic Plan, a vision that will guide St Raphael’s in the years to come. This plan has been shaped with great care and consideration, ensuring that we continue to provide the best possible learning environment for every child in our school. We are eager to share this vision with you and discuss how, together, we can bring it to life.
While the AGM is an essential meeting for our School Board, it is not just for board members—this is an opportunity for all parents to be involved, to hear about the school’s direction, and to contribute to the discussions that shape our community. Your voice and presence matter, and we would love to see as many of you there as possible.
Attending the AGM is a wonderful way to stay connected and to understand how decisions are made. Whether you are new to St Raphael’s or have been part of our community for years, this night is a chance to be part of something meaningful.
Please mark Tuesday, 25 March at 6:00 pm in your calendar, and join us for an evening of conversation, vision, and community spirit. We look forward to seeing you there!
