Welcome to Term 4

Where every child is known, challenged and supported to be lifelong learners.

Dear Parents,

 

Welcome to Term 4 and the last of your Foundation year! We hope you enjoyed the holidays and are ready for a busy term. 

 

This term starts with our fantastic Art Show, followed by an amazing excursion to Scienceworks - with more information to come this week. Please make sure you are regularly checking Operoo and Audiri for communication from the Foundation Team, as well as the whole school. This is vital to ensure a smooth running of the term.

 

Towards the end of Term 3 we noticed that some students are walking into class in the morning with toys they are bringing from home. We ask that you help us with a smooth transition in the morning and not allow your child to bring these items, as they can be quite distracting to other students as they come in and prepare for their day.

 

Due to our specialist program, we are asking that in Term 4 on Wednesdays that students place their bag on their desk when they arrive and immediately sit on the floor ready for STEM - we will unpack bags together later in the day. If your child changes their readers on a Wednesday, you are welcome to arrive at 3:10pm to help them before the end of the day, or let us know if you would prefer us to support them to change their readers during the day. 

 

Suzie Ripp is on leave for the first  3 weeks of term. She is being replaced by Cass Furst who is very familiar with our school. 

 

If you have concerns or questions during the year please contact us via email or through the office on 9580-4518.

 

Kind Regards

 

Suzie Ripp, Lauren Eccles, and Sarah Kimball (The Foundation Team)
