From the Teaching and Learning Deputy

Thank you

I wanted to take this opportunity in the final Inspire of the year to say some thank yous. 

Firstly, we thank our teachers for their efforts this year. I'm sure you would agree that we have a wonderful team of teachers who throughout the year put an incredible effort into teaching and supporting our children. We especially thank them at this busy time of year for the time, effort and care they have dedicated to crafting children's reports. 

While on the subject of reports, I also want to extend a special thanks to Jessica Deer in our admin team who has worked tirelessly to set up and troubleshoot our reports for this semester in a new reporting program. 

I would also like to thank all of our LSOs for their efforts throughout the year. Our classroom LSOs play a key role in helping our children develop and thrive and they all show such care towards our children every day. Our admin LSOs show that same care as they work tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure our school runs smoothly and that our school is a safe and welcoming place.

We also extend our thanks to you as parents and supporters in our community. We value the partnership we have with you in your child's learning journey and thank you for your support this year. 

Finally, on a personal note, I thank all of you for the warm welcome you have given me in my first year at St Paul Lutheran School. It is such a unique school community, full of warmth, diversity, integrity and heart. I have thoroughly enjoyed getting to know you all this year and look forward to learning more about each of you in 2025 and playing my small part in helping St Paul continue to be an amazing school for your children. 

I wish you a blessed Christmas and pray that your family enjoys some time together over the coming weeks.
