Principal's Report

'Be the best they can be'

As you would know, the aim of our school is to provide high quality teaching and programs so that our students can ‘be the best that they can be’.  At both campuses, students are constantly engaged in a diverse range of learning activities. Students are expected to demonstrate through their behaviours the expectations of the school. Students will be responsible, be safe, be respectful and be a learner.

 

Please remember that there are two days early in June when your child is not required at school. There is a public holiday on Monday 12th June and a school Curriculum Day on the following day, Tuesday 13th June.

Education Week

This week is Education Week and the theme is ‘Healthy Mind, Healthy Body’.

Please see Christine’s article later in the newsletter for the full details in regard to Concord School’s Education Week activities.

Sick Students

This is the time of the year when many of our students are sick through catching the flu or a virus.  Parents/carers, I ask that you make every effort to keep your child at home until they are well.   I know that this may cause hardship, especially if you are a working parent, but keep in mind that if your child is sick and is sent to school, then others including staff may pick up this infection/illness.

Parking at the Front of the School

This is a reminder that parents/carers are not to park at the front of the school, or pull up on the front driveway, between the hours of 8.30 - 9.15am and 2.30 - 3.15pm.  The school buses park on the driveway during this time and it is extremely dangerous for our students if cars are also parked on the driveway.  Additional car parking is available on Gleeson Drive and at the back of the school.

Principal's Award

The principal's award goes to Jack.

Jack has shown maturity and gives everything his best effort. Jack is always polite and respectful, displays all of the school values and is a wonderful role model for other students.

 

Congratulations Jack!
