Not really an Acquia Slate issue, but I though I would ask.

So I want to override a theme function defined in the SimpleNews module. I understand I can do this in template.php. However, if an updated version of this theme is released, it means my function could be overwritten - correct? Can I place theme overrides in a different file?

Yes you are correct. Each theme has their own template.php file so if you update the Acquia Slate theme it comes with a template.php file so there is the chance you would override your custom changes. I recommend before you update that you copy the custom code out of the template.php, update the theme, then add your custom code back to the template.php file.
