Student Support Group (SSG)Meetings

Next week is our Student Support Group Meeting week. Please book in a time to meet with your child's classroom teacher. These meetings are an important part of the partnership between home and school so we can work together to best support your child's learning and development at school in 2024.

The meeting also provides you with the opportunity to talk about how your child has settled into school at the start of the year and to ask any questions you may have about the school program. If you are unable to attend next week, please contact your child's teacher to make another time.

If you need an interpreter, please let your child's teacher know and we can book one.
