Principal's Message 

Dear TCPS Families,

Now that our week of senior swimming is complete, we look to yet another busy calendar week to follow. Grade 6 graduation Monday evening, Whole school transition day Tuesday, our final assembly Friday are the major events occurring.

Tuesday is the state transition day, designed for grade 6 students to spend the day at their new secondary school. TCPS takes the opportunity of that day to run a whole school transition experience, where all students move up a grade level to meet and spend time with next years teachers. This however isn't done in homegroups. It is also an opportunity for our new preps for 2023 to attend school as part of their transition to school life.

Please note that our final assembly for 2023 will commence at approximately 9:10am (as soon our students can assemble in the gym after 9am bell) and conclude approximately 1 hour later.

All TCPS families are invited to attend if they are able to.

Student Leadership 2023

As our senior student numbers continue to climb, student leadership selection will become more and more challenging with so many students interested and capable. 

This week after a number of leadership selection tasks were undertaken, we announced our school captains for 2023, and our house captains for 2023.

There will be other student leadership positions available for our students to try out for in 2023.

2023 School Captains

Education is free at TCPS - No Student Payments or School Fees in 2023

I am pleased to inform our families that once again in 2023, and for the foreseeable future, there will be NO requested payment towards Curriculum Contributions from families (previously known as student charges). This means education at TCPS is free for our TCPS families.

TCPS will provide ALL curriculum materials for our students without any requested financial contribution in the form of student charges, from our families. 

This includes ALL books/pens/pencils/paper etc, art supplies, online programs, classroom materials, sporting programs incl buses. Parents will not be requested to make any financial contribution to cover these items. 

There are a number of complex contributing factors that has enabled us to once again achieve and provide this for our families.

The ongoing support of our families has ensured that our school has been able to offer the best possible education and support for our students.  We want to thank all those over our school’s history for their support. This has made a huge difference to our school and the programs we have been able to, and will continue to, offer.

Community Connections Group (CCG)

The CCG have planned a family event for tonight! -  a family picnic on the oval. They are coordinating a surprise for students and will work to create a festive atmosphere. 

Grade Structures 2023

Structurally there won't be a lot of change next year in terms of grade groupings. Mathematics in many ways determine how we combine our grades. In 2023 we will have 28 homegroups, up from 25 this year. In saying this we have been able to maintain our strong commitment to extremely low class sizes across the school. Working with the enrolment numbers we will have the following level teams.
