Welcome back for term 4

Welcome back to our final term of the year.  I hope you have all had a restful break and you are ready for a busy time with end of year reports and meetings, transition days where students become familiar with their new teachers and surroundings in preparation for the 2024 school year.  It will be a big term for other reasons including the demolition of our old upper junior building as part of the school upgrade that has been in the planning stage for some time.  All these things will be happening in addition to all the regular programs.

New National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) Navigator service to support parents and carers 

Our school is excited to be part of the NDIS Navigators initiative. NDIS Navigators will be in all Victorian government specialist schools by 2025 to help you navigate and understand the NDIS and get the most out of the supports available for your child. 

Jenny Camm will be the NDIS Navigator for Naranga School. 

As Navigator, Jenny will:

 • provide information and advice on the NDIS and available supports, including guidance on where to look for services and how to make the best selection for your child 

• support you to understand the: 

o structure of the NDIS and how to navigate and engage with the system 

o ongoing management of NDIS plans and how to raise questions or concerns with the NDIA or NDIS funded organisations 

• assist you to access NDIS Local Area Coordination partners for advice and support. 

Contact Jenny on 9788 2222 to talk about how the NDIS Navigator service can support your family.
