NRMA Science & Road Safety Day

On Monday, the NRMA Science & Road Safety show will be visiting St. Martha's. The show helps to raise awareness and change attitudes towards road safety. Parents are invited to come and watch any of the shows throughout the day. The times of the shows are:

Yrs 3 & 4: 9:00am - 9:50am

Yrs 5 & 6: 11:40am - 12:40pm

Reports

The teachers have begun the process of writing End of Year Reports. The grades and comments are based on many aspects of your child’s work in class, formal and informal assessments, observations, and work samples. Reports will be available to download through Compass on Friday 8th December. 

Organisation Of 2024 Classes

The staff will soon begin the process of creating the 2024 class groupings. This is done to achieve the most appropriate academic and social mix of students that maximises learning for all students.

Teachers will create class groups that endeavour to be evenly balanced with consideration to gender, academic ability, support for learning, behaviour, friendships, and class size. It is a task that takes time, effort, and information. Your child’s teacher will draw upon as much data as they currently have to create these classes including friendship information directly from your child.

If you feel there is an important aspect in regard to your child that you wish to put forward or that we are not currently aware of in preparing for next year’s class, please put your considerations into writing and send them confidentially to Mrs. Parsell via the school email or letter to the office by Wednesday 29th November 2023.
