Principals' Update

It has been fantastic to have our students, staff and CNPS families back onsite this week. We love hearing the sounds of happy kids out in the playground. We are looking forward to being mask free outside from tomorrow. 

 

We are also enjoying the strong sense of community as families are taking advantage of the playground as they are staying back after school. Tomorrow we will welcome parents and carers back onsite for assembly. We remind all visitors to the school to check in with the QR codes and maintain social distancing.

 

Semester 1 Student Reports

Next week we will be distributing the Semester 1 Student Reports on Compass. We will be conducting Parent-Teacher Interviews in Week 4 next term on Tuesday 3 and Wednesday 4 August. These interviews are an opportunity for parents and carers to discuss the Semester 1 Student Reports and their child’s academic and social-emotional progress with their child’s teacher. Further information on how to book a Parent-Teacher Interview will be published early next term.

 

Trivia Night Friday 23 July at  75 Reid St, Fitzroy North

This year we will be holding a Trivia Night to raise much needed funds for the school. This will be one of the major fundraisers for 2021 as we won’t be holding The Great Lee St Fete this year. We are looking forward to a vibrant night out and invite you to come along and celebrate with us. We have sold over 100 tickets in just one week! What a great result it has been from our wonderful parent community, thank you for your continuous and ongoing support.

Susan McLean Cyber Safety Session Term 3 - Tuesday 17 August

We are excited to share that we have booked Cyber Safety Expert - Susan McLean to conduct four sessions for students, staff and parents/carers on Tuesday 17 August. 

 

Susan McLean is Australia’s foremost expert in the area of cyber safety and was a member of the Victoria Police for 27 years. Widely known as the ‘cyber cop’ she was the first Victoria Police Officer appointed to a position involving cyber safety and young people. Susan has conducted cyber safety sessions with CNPS students, staff and parents/carers for a number of years and each presentation is extremely informative and relevant to the online activities of our children at the time.

 

Susan will be conducting the following sessions:

  • Cyber Safety Session for Year 3/4
  • Cyber Safety Session for Year 5/6
  • Professional Learning Session for Staff
  • Cyber Safety Information Session for Parents and Carers (F-6)

We are fortunate that these sessions will be partly subsidised by funding through the School Focused Youth Services. We would like to thank Sally Ball - School Focused Youth Services Coordinator at Berry Street for assisting us with this funding.
