Meetings

A school calendar is released at the start of the year and re-released at the start of each term (saved on Teams). This outlines the important dates, events and meetings over each term. All teachers are required to attend 2 x 1-hour meetings each week (pro-rata). Morning briefings are an opportunity for staff to collegiate and communicate, and be informed about operations, events and practices (minutes documented on Teams).  

 

The usual weekly meeting structure is:  

  • Morning briefing: Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 8:40 am in the Staff Room  
  • Domain Area meetings: Tuesday afternoons 3.30pm - 4.30pm  
  • Whole School Professional Learning Meetings: Thursday afternoons 3.30pm - 4.30pm

    • Domain B Learning Area Teams: Humanities, Science, PE/ Health  

Please note: all teachers will be allocated to a Domain A or Domain B team for Domain Area meetings, despite some staff having a teaching load across multiple Domains. You will need to ensure you are kept updated with announcements from all Domain Area teams that you belong to.
