Principal's Post

TERM 4: 2025 Week 1-2: reminders and critical messages

Principal's Message 

Welcome back to the final term of 2025 - unbelievable that it has come around so

quickly.

 

As mentioned in the final newsletter of Term 3, we are going to trial a slightly different approach to sharing news and important updates/reminders. From today onwards, we will share a fortnightly update, in the form of the 'Principal's Post', which will note any critical messages and brief reminders about upcoming events. The newsletter will now be published twice a term, and will include a page dedicated to each year level, so that teachers can showcase work and events that are relevant to your child's school experience. 

 

As shared in the final newsletter, I will continue in the Principal role for the remainder of the 2025 school year, as Vassie has continued in her Acting Role at Melton Primary School. 

 

I look forward to what will undoubtedly be a busy final term, but one full of success and achievement. In particular, I wish all our Year 6 students the best, as they embark upon their final term at Wembley Primary School. 

 

Katie McClue - Acting Principal
