Parent Opinion Survey

WE WANT OUR PARENTS/CAREGIVERS/GUARDIANS TO TELL US WHAT THEY THINK!

 

Our school is conducting a survey to find out what parents/caregivers/guardians think of our school. The Parent/Caregiver/Guardian Opinion Survey is an annual survey offered by the Department of Education and Training that is conducted amongst a sample of randomly selected parents/caregivers/guardians (previously known as the Parent Opinion Survey). It is designed to assist schools in gaining an understanding of families’ perceptions of school climate, student behaviour, student engagement and experiences of remote and flexible learning. Our school will use the survey results to help inform and direct future school planning and improvement strategies.

 

Approximately 30 per cent of parents will be invited to participate in this year’s survey. All responses to the survey are anonymous. This year, the Parent/Caregiver/Guardian Opinion Survey will close Friday 8 September 2023.

 

The survey will be conducted online, only takes 20 minutes to complete, and can be accessed at any convenient time within the fieldwork period on desktop computers, laptops, tablets or smartphones. The online survey will be available in a range of languages other than English. These include: Arabic, Vietnamese, Mandarin, Chin (Hakha), Hindi, Japanese, Somali, Turkish, Punjabi and Greek.

Fathers Day Stall

Our Fathers Day Stall, which was held this week, was once again a great success.  

 

A big shout out needs to go to the Parents and Friends Committee and all the volunteer helpers who came along on the day.  Your help is very much appreciated. 

Breakfast Club

We have had so many students visit us in the mornings for delicious toasties, cereals and milos to help kick start their learning day!   It’s also been wonderful to be inundated with so many students eager to volunteer their time to help make Breakfast Club an amazing experience for all!

 

 If your child is keen to be a Breakfast Club helper, they are welcome to see Mrs Burns or Mrs Marslen to join our growing roster of amazing volunteers.

 

Care Packages and Milo Donations!

Due to our generous donations, Breakfast Club has been able to support many families through the provision of Care Packages.  Our Traf Pantry (found in the Gym Foyer), continues to be stocked with many excellent products, available to anyone - and they’re free!  

 

If you would like to receive a Care Package or know of a family who may benefit, feel free to drop into our School Office, see Mrs Burns or Mrs Marslen.

 

A shout out goes to those who generously donate goods to our breakfast club , IGA Trafalgar, Bakers Delight Morwell,  Gracies Bakery Trafalgar,  RTL Morwell.

 

Thank you again to all families who have generously donated tins of Milo to our Breakfast Club. Our students have absolutely loved the warm milos each morning. Any extra donations would be most appreciated!
