Bump Up Day - FRIDAY: All P-5 students will 'bump up' to their 2024 year group for a transition experience. Students will arrive at school on Friday and go straight to their new year group. Blue classes to Blue classrooms, Red classes to Red classrooms. Students will remain in their current classes, with the current teachers of that grade. This day is an experience for the children - it is not in their new classes or with their new teachers. *Yr 6 students who are going to Calrossy for Year 7 will going to Secondary for the day. 

 

Preparing 2024: At this time, we make plans for teachers and classes for 2024. This is a carefully thought-out process involving the students and staff. Students will nominate others who they can learn well with, and this forms a piece of the information we use to prepare the classes for 2024. We consider the academic ability, gender, current classes, friendship preferences or problems, suitability with the teacher, behavioural makeup of the class and overall cohesion. It is not without great thought and time. I commend this process to you as it is a very rigorous and considered. We do not involve parents or take parents requests for teachers or friendships. Our staff are across the needs of our students, and we invite you to trust us, having considered the needs of each child in the school and how they form an integral part of the whole Junior School.

  • GIRLS: Monday 27th November, WCC Hall 9am
  • BOYS: Tuesday 28th November, WCC Hall 9am (please note this is a change of day from Wednesday). 

Phones/iWatches/Device: Please leave these at home. Children do not need these at school. If they must, they need to be dropped in the box at the JS Office. This includes watches, with any kind of wifi connectivity or ability to interrupt the flow of learning, via a notification. They are a distraction and not necessary. iWatches can be worn out of school time, not at school and are an expensive item, not needed to add to the items that can be lost or damages at school.
