Semester 1 Reports
When do reports go home?
The reporting period is a time to celebrate each student's achievements and learning during the first half of the year. Semester 1 student reports for Years 1 to Year 6 will be available via Compass from 3:00 pm Friday 18 June.
Kindergarten
Kindergarten students do not receive a Semester 1 written report. However, Kindergarten teachers will be holding parent/teacher conferences where parents will engage in conversation with the class teacher about their child's progress, achievements and areas for growth.
Parent/Teacher Conferences - NOW OPEN!
An important part of the reporting to parents process is the parent/teacher conference. Bookings are now open so please book your 10-minute meeting with your child's teacher through the COMPASS Parent Portal.
Booking will close on SUNDAY 20 JUNE at 5:00pm
Parent/Teacher Conferences will be held as face-to-face meetings. Should you prefer a zoom conference, please contact the school office to make arrangements.
