Parent Literacy Workshop
Date: Wednesday 29th May
Time: 6.30pm – 8.00pm
Location: Oasis Kitchen, Pilgrim School
Are you wondering how learning to read happens at school?
Is your child struggling to learn to read?
Curious about how students progress through reader levels?
Do you have a child who has picked up reading quickly and you don’t know how to challenge them or what is next?
This interactive workshop is open for all parents and caregivers and targeted to those with students in Foundation to Year 2.
Some of our specialist Early Years teachers will be sharing their expertise about how to help children as they navigate learning to read and develop their reading skills for accuracy, meaning and understanding.
We welcome you to join us for a fun and informative night! Please organise childcare as this is an adult only event. Please book below:
School Hats
During Term 2 students are required to wear hats whenever the UV is 3 and above. Staff regularly access the daily sun protection times via the SunSmart app. Please ensure your child still has a school hat at school for the days that it will need to be worn.
