Principal's Message

Tomorrow is our first Kindergarten Orientation session. We are all extremely excited to meet all our new Kinders for 2024. We currently have 65 students enrolled to begin next year. If you know of any students who are in our community who are old enough to attend school, please ask their parents to contact the school. 

Students are looking forward to participating in Swim School next week. The lessons will take place over the next two weeks at the Manning Aquatic Centre. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Mrs Conroy and Miss Milgate for all their organisation.

Unfortunately, we are seeing some negative changes in student behaviour across the school. Classroom teachers are currently delivering lessons to students about bullying and ensuring students keep their hands and feet to themselves. We would really appreciate your help in talking to your children about this issue. I have included a link to the Department of Education Behaviour code for students. 

Eglinton Public School attendance as at 2nd November 2023

Last Week: 90.5%

This week: 90.6%

Goal: 95%

Did you know that for your child to achieve an attendance rate of 95% each term they should have no more than 2 days off. 

You can check your child's attendance rate on the Sentral Parents App. Click on their photo, select 'Student Details' and click on 'Attendance'. Our expected student attendance rate is above 95%. To maintain an attendance rate of above 90% a student should have no more than 5 days off a term. 

Thank you for supporting us in reaching our attendance goal. The data above shows our current student attendance for the last week. Please ensure you contact the school via the Sentral Parent Portal if your child has a day off to explain their absence.
