It will be a wonderful day next Monday will be when we begin to welcome back our students to their classrooms. We very much look forward to the roadmap of the coming months. We realise we will still need to follow the strict department and health guidelines, but we will seize all the opportunities we can. I do very much hope we have much to smile about and celebrate over term 4 together. ☺

We will keep families informed of the drop off and pick-up protocols for the coming weeks via our Compass portal.

SCHOOL REVIEW

As previously shared our school is undertaking a formal school review this term as part of the ongoing DET accountability framework. Throughout term three we have prepared a comprehensive self - evaluation. Our data has been well analysed and our previous targets scrutinised.

Throughout the review days our reviewer and the panel will observe some of our classrooms (either onsite or remotely), speak to small focus groups of our student leaders and parents and discuss our successes and areas of future focus for our school. Our new School Strategic Plan will be shared prior to the end of term.

In preparation for our review we have reviewed and updated a number of our school policies over recent months.

These have been shared with staff and School Council as necessary and have been updated on our school website\ with paper copies available on request from the office.
