Principal's Report

The Stand Up Project 

On Wednesday, myself along with a number of staff had the privilege of listening to our 5/6 SUP leaders presenting on The Stand Up Project (SUP). The SUP project is a student voice, agency and leadership program that is delivered through an anti-bullying and Upstander model. 

Rather than delivering a single session, the program supports schools to embed upstander values into everyday practice, led by students and supported by staff. Thank you to our SUP leaders, our school is a safer place because of all of you. 

Class Placement

As we begin planning for the 2027 school year, our teachers and leadership team are working carefully to form next year's classes.

Class formation is a detailed process. We consider a range of factors to create balanced, supportive learning environments for every student.

If there are any significant concerns relating to your child that you believe the school should consider during the class formation process, please email me by Monday 26th October.

Please note that information or requests shared in previous years will not automatically be carried forward. If a previously raised concern remains relevant, please communicate this to me in writing so that it can be considered as part of this year's process.

Class placements will be shared with students on Tuesday 8 December as part of our Step-Up Transition Day.

Morning Supervision 

There are a number of students who are arriving at school very early. Please note that staff are only on duty supervising students from 8:50 am. 

Pupil Free Day

Just a reminder that Monday 2nd Nov is a pupil free day, and students are not required at school.

Hats and water bottles

With the weather warming up and the demolition of the old bike sheds (and some of the water taps), please ensure that your child has a hat and a water bottle.
