Little Learners Love Literacy Update

Next week we have our very first assembly which will be celebrating reading. Students in Foundation to Year 2 will be awarded our very special Reading Awards for the number of nights read so far this year.

Introducing the 'Secret Agent Society'

Secret Agent Society is a Small Group Program used to support children’s social-emotional development. It is an evidence-based approach to teach children:

1. Emotion Recognition 
2. Emotion Regulation 
3. Diverse Social Skills
4. Problem Solving

This program is currently being trialled with one small group in Year 4 with the hope of expanding into other year levels in the future.
