Semester 1 Reports
Semester 1 Reports will be available on Sentral from 3.00pm tomorrow.
Following feedback from parents and carers earlier this year, we’ve made minor adjustments to our reporting template. These changes, such as reducing curriculum jargon, aim to give families a clearer understanding of student achievement and future learning opportunities.
Additionally, the Department of Education has mandated that all schools begin teaching and assessing against the Victorian Curriculum 2.0 starting in 2025. Below is a letter from Mr Ridgway that explains this transition in more detail.
Please also be reminded that although we have only two formal opportunities for parents/carers to meet with the teachers, we do operate a whole-school open-door policy. In the best interest of each of their students, our teachers welcome ongoing conversations with parents/carers. They are highly approachable and responsive.
Early Finish Tomorrow - 2.30pm
A reminder that school will finish at 2:30pm tomorrow to mark the end of Term 2.
We wish all our families a safe and enjoyable holiday break! See you next term, well-rested and ready for another great term of learning.
