Principal's Report

Acting Principal - Julie Hommelhoff 

Assistant Principal - Matt Saunders  

 

Welcome to Term 4 2022

 

Term 4 will bring many fantastic events, busy times, and a conclusion period for many people at ETRS. We are looking forward to celebrating throughout the term. 

 

Staffing changes this term will be as follows: 5 / 6 B Trish Bradley will teach this wonderful group for the first four weeks. This position will be advertised, and our community will be informed of the successful applicant as soon as possible. Narelle is returning to Bendigo SDS. Mrs Ridge, Mrs Bourke, Mrs Whitten, Dee, Debbie, Kym, Vikki, Donna, and Sue will return to their classrooms/positions, days, and hours this term. 1 / 2 A will be covered by Miss Bacon for the first five weeks of term. We wish to thank everyone who changed their time fraction and or worked throughout Term 3 including Mrs E, Keelie, Mollie, Mrs Bradley, Vikki, Dee, Sue and Brie. It was busy, yet everyone just did it, made it and with success 😊. 

 

 

I am really pleased to announce that I will continue in the Acting Principal role at ETRS for the whole of Term 4. It will be an opportunity to consolidate everything achieved over the past twelve months. I look forward to finishing the year with this amazing community. 

 

Planning for 2023

 

This time of year, we begin to plan for the 2023 school year. If you have any requests related to your child's wellbeing, please email them to echuca.twin.rivers.ps@education.vic.gov.au Please note we do not take individual requests for teachers.

We understand that at times families may move for a range of reasons. If you think you may not be attending ETRS next year, please email us as this will help support us with planning for 2023.

We welcome the following students and their families to Echuca Twin Rivers School this term: Hamish D, Cohen L, Lennox L and Aydin A. We hope you settle in to our community quickly and enjoy every day. 

 

Foundation 2023 Enrolments

 

All enrolment documents are available to download from our website. You may also contact the school and we can send the information to you via email or the post.

If you know of any families who are interested in enrolling, please ask them to contact the school. Thank you to our families who are getting the good word out in the community about our school, word of mouth is the most powerful form of advertising and consequently, we are fielding an increased number of inquiries about our school.

 

First of September, Hats Remember!

Don’t forget when our students will need to wear their school hat. If your child’s hat is frayed or has writing on it, it will need to be replaced. ETRS hats can be purchased at the office for $10.
