Deputy Principal Report

Back into the Swing

Now that we have been back at school for a few weeks, it has been so pleasing to see staff and students engaged in face to face learning, playing together and taking part in all the opportunities that school life has to offer. This past fortnight has the return to a number of exciting activities, with a number more on the horizon in the coming weeks.

 

Kind Regards,

Matthew Mooney

 

Below are just a few updates about upcoming events and programs.

 

Upcoming dates

Please see the Upcoming Dates page where there are a number of important dates for first term in 2021.

 

School Assemblies

It was so good to be able to gather out in the courtyard for our assembly last Wednesday. We plan to continue to gather outside for the time being.

 

Meet and Greet Parent & Teacher Chats - Years 1-6

Foundation Parent Information Evening

Thank you to all the parents who took the time to attend these meetings. The information shared will be invaluable in helping us support your children this year. A big thank you also to our teachers for dedicating the afternoon and evening to conducting these meetings.

 

STOMP Dance Lessons

Dance lessons with the STOMP dance company finally kicked off this Thursday after a false start last week. Over the next 4 Thursdays the students will learn a choreographed dance which they will then get the opportunity to share with the other classes and the parents in a performance during week 9. The details and form of the performance are yet to be confirmed due to ongoing COVID precautions, however we will provide you more details about this as soon as possible.

 

 

School Communication - Skoolbag App

Thank you to everyone who has subscribed and updated their Skoolbag groups for 2022. This is the primary way we communicate with parents and therefore it is vital that you have it set up properly to make sure you receive notifications and emails.

Just a quick tip also, that if you can't access an attachment that comes from a Skoolbag email, you should be able to access it by going to the notice in the app itself. Click on the link below for a quick guide on subscribing to groups in the app.
