Dear Families

It was fantastic to see so many families and students attend our Winter Celebration Evening. As a school we love opportunities to be come together and build connections and relationships with our families. We appreciate you supporting the event and look forward to holding it again next year.

Reports

On Monday mid-year reports were sent home to families. This is a great time to check in with your child/ren around how their learning is progressing. During this week and next, learning conversations will be held at school. We really value the opportunity to discuss your child’s learning with you. We encourage students to also be part of these conversations. There are still slots available, so if you have not had a chance to book yet, please book online or call the office. Senior staff are also available for conversations during this time. We look forward to seeing you over the next few weeks.

One of our student wellbeing focus goals is around improving attendance. If your child is well then they must attend school every day. We understand there are many situations where it can be challenging for students to attend. Recently we surveyed some students around what they enjoy about school and what the challenges were around attendance. Students named up positive relationships with staff and their peers, as well as having different activities to do at break times as reasons they enjoyed coming to school. In response to this student feedback, we are increasing our engagement strategies for students. We also have an attendance team who can provide you and your child with support. Please contact the school if you need assistance with your child’s attendance.
