Assistant Principal's Report

Teach the Teacher

The Student Executive have been working on a Teach the Teacher project this term. They gathered important information from a survey and during student forums. On Monday, five wonderful students presented their findings to staff during their professional learning meeting. Data demonstrated that students feel their teachers are supportive of their learning but there is a need for teachers to provide opportunities for student feedback. They presented a few options that teachers could consider including surveys, short forums and fist of fives. I was so proud of how the students coordinated and presented this session.

Lunch Passes

Students are required to be at school throughout the school day. Below is the process for obtaining a lunch pass, to assist parents in creating a partnership with the school. Please note that our school has a Café, and its viability depends on student and family support.

Short Term Lunch Passes

1. Written consent (email or note; parent permission on Compass is not appropriate) is required for students to leave school grounds for lunch.
2. Students should return to school after getting their lunch to connect with peers and be supervised by yard duty staff.
3. Short term lunch passes are valid for that day only.

Long Term Lunch Passes

Year 12 students have long term lunch passes as a privilege. Parents wishing to arrange a long term lunch pass should meet with the Student Engagement Leader to discuss its appropriateness and support the student in enjoying the benefits of staying at school during out-of-class time.

For any questions, please contact Mitch Harris, Assistant Principal.
