Principal Report

House Teams!

Thank you to the House Captain for running such a terrific sports fun day yesterday. Everyone had a lot of fun. Thanks also to Dimi and Ms Ansons for their great support and organisation of this event.

It was also terrific to see many parents coming along to watch the students get together with their house teams. This creates a great sense of community.

Please look at the Junior School Council section to see our new MURALS for each House Team with our House Captains. 

AUSLAN

I went in 5/6 C this week while they did their AUSLAN lesson. It was simply terrific. Students were role playing ' having a conversation' together. Students were engaged and watching each other sharing their skills in signing a greeting conversation.

" Hi, How are you?" " I'm good"

"My name is......" " What's your name?"

This year our AUSLAN Program has been created by Mrs Carmichael, who has taken on feedback from our teachers and students from their previous learnings with the online program. The scope and sequence this term is to develop skills over a few weeks and not move too quickly, so that students can embed their learning.

SCHOOL REVIEW

Our four yeStrategic Plan is up for review this year. Therefore, we have to undertake a great deal of self-assessment. The review will take place in Term 3 and in Term 2 we will be conducting parent forums to get community feedback along with surveys our staff and students.

This term we have started to complete our compliance checks with policies and child safety standards.
