NSi School Climate Surveys – Term 3
This term, Hurstville Public School will again participate in the NSi School Climate Suite surveys. These surveys help us better understand the experiences of our students, staff and families, including their sense of belonging, wellbeing, engagement and connection to our school.
The Parent and Caregiver Voice Survey will be open from Monday 10 August to Sunday 30 August 2026. We warmly encourage all parents and carers to participate, as your feedback plays an important role in helping us reflect on our current practices and plan for continued school improvement.
Student and staff surveys will take place from Monday 31 August to Sunday 20 September 2026. Students from Kindergarten to Year 2 and Support Unit classes will complete a paper-based survey, while students in Years 3–6 will complete the survey online.
Further information, including how families can access the Parent and Caregiver Voice Survey, will be shared during Week 4. Thank you for taking the time to share your voice and support the ongoing growth of our school.
SchoolBytes - Transition to Family Communication
From Term 3, Hurstville Public School will transition from School eNews to SchoolBytes as our main platform for communicating with families.
This change will help streamline communication for parents and carers, bringing more school information into one platform. For the remainder of Term 2, we will continue using School eNews and SchoolBytes as we prepare for the transition. From Term 3, School eNews will no longer be used.
Thank you for your support as we work towards a more consistent and efficient communication process for our school community.
