Principal's Message Term 4 Week 7 - 2022

Dear Parents

Staffing News

Next Friday we will be farewelling Janet Williams, our Librarian, who is moving overseas for two years due to her husband's recent appointment to the Cocos Islands. On Wednesday we will farewell Georgina from our Diverse Learnng Support team as she is moving interstate.

Community Council Open Meeting 

There will be a Community Council open meeting on Tuesday 29 November at 5:30pm in the staff room, everyone is welcome.

Parent Teacher Interviews

Teachers are now available to meet with parents for a face-to-face 10-minute parent/teacher conference. Due to various commitments, each teacher has developed their own schedule for the conferences. Conference bookings can be made via your Compass Parent Portal.

This parent conference is a valuable opportunity for you to connect with your child’s teacher/s and for the teachers to provide feedback on how your child has progressed over the semester.

I encourage parents to attend a conference to hear about your child's successes and possible goals for the commencement of the 2023 school year.

Should you require a phone or an MS Teams meeting, please email your child's teacher to set up a time.  The teachers are looking forward to meeting with you over the next two weeks. 

Reports will be issued in the last week of the term.
