Deputy Principal's Report

Dear Parents and Carers

It has remained a busy time at Oak Flats Public School with teachers and students completing final units of learning across the curriculum. The school is busily preparing for our special end of year activities including the whole-school Year 6 fundraiser, class parties, Presentation Day and the Year 6 Farewell. It is hard to believe that in two short weeks we will be saying goodbye to our Year 6 students, but after hearing the speeches of our aspiring school leaders this week, I know OFPS is in good hands!

Transition

Next week, our Kindergarten and Year 2 students will be participating in transition activities. The jump from one stage to another can be daunting for some students, especially in a school that is designed like ours with separate junior and primary areas. To ensure our students feel supported in their transition, they will be spending time with the current teachers and students in the grades above. During transition, students will be participating in team building, cooperative and creative activities. They will also spend time exploring their new learning and play areas and sharing lunch and recess together.

Protecting our Students

The Child Safety Handbook includes information to protect our children. From 

preventative measures at home to safety outdoors, from cyber-safety to dealing with peer pressures, this is a great resource for every family.
