A Walk In The Mountains Author Unknown
A son and his father were walking in the mountains.
Suddenly, his son falls, hurts himself and screams: AAAhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"
To his surprise, he hears the voice repeating, somewhere in the mountain: "AAAhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"
Curious, he yells: "Who are you?" He receives the answer: "Who are you?"
Angered at the response, he screams: "Coward!" He receives the answer: "Coward!"
He looks to his father and asks: "What's going on?"
The father smiles and says: "My son, pay attention."And then he screams to the mountain: "I admire
you!" The voice answers: "I admire you!"
Again the man screams: "You are a champion!" The voice answers: "You are a champion!"
The boy is surprised, but does not understand. Then the father explains: "People call this ECHO, but
really this is LIFE. It gives you back everything you say or do.
Our life is simply a reflection of our actions. If you want more love in the world, create more love in
your heart. If you want more competence in your team, improve your competence.
This relationship applies to everything, in all aspects of life;
Life will give you back everything you have given to it."

If you know of anyone who is looking to enrol at St Francis de Sales in 2016, please encourage them to come and get an application package from the office. We are hoping to again have enough students to warrant a “stand alone” Prep next year.

Overdue School Fees School Fees are now overdue and if you have not already paid, please do so before this Friday. The smooth running of the everyday expenses at the school is dependent on these fees. Any families experiencing financial difficulties with

discuss the issue.
RADII Surveys This year our school will be participating in a School Improvement Survey man-aged by Research Australia Development and Innovation Institute (RADII). RADII are conducting these surveys in all Catholic schools in the Diocese on behalf of the Catholic Education Office. As well as school staff and students from Years 5-12, all parents are invited to participate in the survey. We hope the parent survey will help us to identify what we are doing well as well as areas for development.
RADII will send all parents a personalized invitation to complete the survey online. If both parents’ email addresses are on file at the school, the invitation will be sent to both parents. However, the survey will close once the first person has completed it.
The survey will take approximately 10-15 minutes to complete. You can complete the survey from anywhere you have access to the internet.
We encourage you to be very honest in your responses to the surveys. All responses go directly to RADII so they are confidential and anonymous.
If you DO NOT wish to have your contact details provided to RADII could you please notify the school by Friday 19 June 2015 via email : Clif-
The surveys will be undertaken during Catholic Education Week 26 July – 02 August
2015.
