A note from Mr Jackson

All Hands to the Barrow!

Saturday morning will be a frenzy of activity at the Term 1 Working Bee from 9:00am to 12noon. Parents will be aware that we have had a truckload of softfall delivered in the upper and lower playgrounds. This is to ensure the safety of students as they run and play underneath the playground. We are eager to distribute this on Saturday morning with some volunteering hands! Please join us with a wheelbarrow if you can. Don’t miss out on the BBQ at 12 noon.

 

2025 Prep Invitations

It seems a little early to be communicating about the 2025 Prep students but our timelines have been moved forward and we are always eager to keep people informed about what is coming up. Some of our current parents may have friends and relatives considering enrolments. I encourage you to pick up a flyer in the foyer with the following information provided.

 

2025 Prep Parents/Carer Weekly Tours

We have scheduled a range of tours that are available for parents and carers eager to see life at Rosanna Primary in action. Parents join our captains and Principal on a walk through the school.  It is a great chance to have questions answered from the Principal and from a student's perspective. Please RSVP by ringing the office or scanning the QR Code.

This is a chance to explore some of the strategies to support numeracy and literacy development in the first year of primary school and the final year of kindergarten.

Staying Safe Online

Thanks to all who have had discussions with their children about staying safe online. If you have yet to sign these consents you can ask for a printed version from the office or simply return the copy already sent home.
