Primary Principal's Report

Billy  Barnes

This will be our final Channels newsletter for the 2022 school year. Thank you to everyone in the school community for your ongoing support of Kyabram P-12 (Primary Campus). It has been excellent to witness an overwhelming community spirit to the floods. We are very fortunate to have such a wonderful school community. 

 

Staff Farewells 

We have a few staff who will be leaving us for 2023 or who are retiring – Ange Acocks, Carlie Argus and Alannah Scopelliti are all heading in different directions while Kay Mattingly and Chris Oxford will be retiring. On behalf of the school community, I would like to take this opportunity to thank each of you for your contribution to our school and wish you the very best for next year.

Orientation Day 

Thank you to all members of our school community for such a wonderful Orientation Day last Tuesday. All classes were settled with all staff and students excited about their new classes for 2023. The entire day ran smoothly, with a sense of calm across the Primary Campus. Well done everyone.
