Principal's News

As the weather gets cooler we have had a significant increase in student and staff absences. If your child is unwell please text or phone the office.

Regular attendance 
Regular school attendance will mean your child gets a better chance at life. Your child will achieve better when they go to school all day, every school day:

  • they learn better
  • they make friends
  • they are happier
  • they have a brighter future

Earlier in Term 1, I mentioned as parents and carers you have a critical role in your child’s success at school.

The following five questions are designed to assist you as you engage with your child’s learning. We encourage you to take the opportunity at the end of the day to ask the questions and find out what learning has taken place.

5 Questions Parents can ask their children:

  1. What did you learn today?
  2. How did you do?
  3. What did you do if you didn’t understand?
  4. How can you improve on your learning?
  5. What are you most proud of?

Report Cards
We continue to inform you of your child’s progress with written report cards being sent out in Week 10. We invite you to contact teachers if you wish to meet and discuss your child’s progress further.

Sports Day
Sports Day will be held during Week 10 and we look forward to having families join us on the day. Please note there will be a special tuckshop menu on this day.

Yours in education
