2019 Enrolments

We have been busy planning for 2019. In order to create the best possible plan, we need to know our enrolment. If you know of someone joining us in 2019, please encourage them to enrol as soon as possible and likewise, if you are leaving us, please let Megan in the office know. Having correct enrolment numbers means we have the correct number of teachers and support staff.

Essential Education Items 2019

Our School Council have discussed and ratified the Essential Educational Items for 2019. In the next week, you will receive information on this to allow time and your planning to pay for the resources your child will need in 2019. Teachers have spent a lot of time developing the booklists to ensure the students have all they need for the year and to keep costs at a minimum. We have completed this task early to assist your budgeting and hope the extra time is helpful to you.

2019 Planning

Over the last fortnight the leadership team have been busy working on the staffing for 2019. We have had an outstanding pool of applicants and we are confident we have a fabulous team going into 2019.

Teachers have already spent many hours working on class placements. We work exceptionally hard as a team to put the classes together, taking into account the academic and wellbeing needs of each student. We have worked hard to try and accommodate requests received from parents. We are as keen as you to see your children have a fantastic school year in 2019.

Bunnings

A big thank you goes to Pakenham Bunnings and especially Anita and Hayley from the store who have been assisting in the STEM garden and some other projects in the grounds. Tanjil-lea Delport and the STEM students really appreciate the donations of materials and labour to improve our grounds.

Student Work

Each day I have the privilege of seeing students learning and producing great pieces of work. This week I had a visit from Bethany and Riley from M20 who had started a newspaper. They kindly went away and completed a final page about the school which I thought I would share below.

Thanks Riley and Bethany.

Hats

Just a reminder that it is school policy that hats must be worn outside during Term 4. Students without hats have restricted undercover areas to play in. Please make sure your child has a correct hat. Thank you in advance for supporting this and keeping your child safe in the sun.
