Stronger Together: School & Home

As part of our School Strategic Plan, we are strengthening our focus on building meaningful partnerships with parents and family carers. We recognise that when families and schools work together, students are better supported to achieve success in their learning and wellbeing. Throughout the year, we will be creating more opportunities for families to connect with the school, engage in their child’s learning, and share their voice in our community. Please follow the link below for more information around the evidential benefits of family engagement within their child's learning environment. A printed copy of this document was also sent home with students.

We are pleased to say that our weekly afternoon tea for families on Wednesday pick-up time is going well. Staff enjoy connecting with families in a relaxed manner to discuss events happening within the school and individual students learning experiences. This will be an ongoing opportunity to connect with our school community in a relaxed and welcoming setting.

Please note that from this time, supervision at the front of the school will cease. All students will need to be collected from inside the school grounds.

We warmly invite families to stay, enjoy a cuppa, and share a bite to eat while you’re here.
