Classroom Helpers Course

Every year we welcome our classroom helpers into our rooms. Classroom helpers are essential to the continuing partnership between school, parents and caregivers. As in previous years, we ask that you attend one of the two sessions so as to become familiar with what is expected when you are assisting in the classroom.  We will be covering issues such as :

* Confidentiality

* Scaffolded support in the classroom

* Signing in protocols

* Assisting with Literacy- some key strategies 

The two sessions will be held on:

Tuesday, 13 March at 14:30 – 15:15 and Thursday, 15 March 09:00 – 10:00

All helpers are required to attend a session, even if the session was attended in the previous years. You only need to attend ONE of the sessions offered.

Parent Information Workshop

Our students will be bringing WORDS THEIR WAY homework beginning in Term 2. If you'd like to know more about this approach, don't forget to come to our parent information session tomorrow evening (6th March) at 7pm in the school hall.

Hope to see you there!
