Welcome back to another edition of the Admin Corner!

Prep Transition

In the coming weeks, our school has the absolute pleasure of welcoming in our new, 2024 prep students as our Prep Transition Program commences. These sessions are targeted at slowly integrating our future learners into their new learning spaces, and familiarizing them with their new classmates, teachers, and general school expectations.

Running at the same time as these sessions are parent information sessions, which introduce and explore various areas of early childhood learning from numeracy and literacy to the use of digital technology to enhance education. These sessions also touch on important details about our different school offerings, including our nurse and the Health Hub.

The first of these sessions takes place on Tuesday the 5th of September, between 11:30am and 1:00pm, with a focus on ‘Building Connections within the GWPS Community, Literacy and Science’. The additional four sessions take place on the 10th and 24th of October and the 14th and 28th of November (all on Tuesdays at the same time as the first), with this last session an important one, as the future learners will spend the session in their next year’s classroom, with their future teacher and classmates! It is an important session that is best not missed.

During the 14th and 28th of November sessions, the uniform shop will also be open from 1:00pm-2:00pm, for uniform and accessories to be purchased.

For parents unable to attend any of the five transition sessions, there will be a ‘New Parent Information Evening’ on Tuesday the 5th of December at 6:30pm, held in our staffroom.

Our transition program is a special part of our school calendar, and we look forward to another successful program commencing very soon! If you have any questions about the program, please get in touch with us in the office however you please.

If any of our current families are yet to enrol a child for prep 2024, please do so as soon as possible.

Warm regards,

Daniel Itsines
