Comment Selection:

"The teachers were well organised and made a positive/happy presentation. They were willing and able to answer questions from all parents."

"Good to learn about the terminology used in the classroom and also be able to provide feedback about parent teacher interviews."

"Good insight into some of the learning styles and allowed us to facilitate conversations with our kids. Appreciated meeting teachers early on in the year."

"Good overview of how the school is teaching our children. Good to see that from Kindergarten to Year 10, it is pretty much the same format, method used."

"I found the session very informative and appreciate that the information was communicated to me by the stage teachers. The more information the better."

"Somewhat useful. Some information was repeated from last year."

"Clarified how much time was spent teaching Key Learning Area's (KLA's). Explained terminology e.g campfire, wow words… showed us physical learning spaces ...Felt very positive coming from our child’s teachers"

"Lots of things we already knew, good reminders but would have liked to hear more about how/why classrooms work."

"Although I found the information to be valuable, the same presentation was presented to each grade and this type of information could be sent home as a letter."

Have a wonderful week
