Progress Reports and Parent Teacher Interviews
Parent-teacher Interviews will be held on Wednesday March 27th from 4:30pm - 7:00pm, Thursday March 28th from 9:00am – 12:00pm and from 1:00pm - 3:30pm. Please note that no regular classes will be held on Thursday March 28th 2024. Normal classes will run on Wednesday, March 27th 2024. Students should attend the interviews with their family. Teachers who are available for interviews on Wednesday evening will not be available for interviews on Thursday afternoon.
Please note that this year the first round of students' progress reports are available on Compass the end of the day on Friday March 8th 2024. This will indicate specifically where teachers have requested an interview, however I remind all parents that interviews with any of your child’s teachers are possible and encouraged. This year parents will also be able to book an interview time through the Compass Management system and information on this will come out shortly.
