Welcome to Term Two

We want to welcome all the new families joining us in Term Two and welcome back to all our familiar faces. Term One was full of rich learning opportunities that demonstrated the students’ growth mindsets and resilience, including the Summer Round Robin, Cultural Diversity Week and our first of many Leadership days. It was amazing to see the learners collaborating, encouraging and supporting their peers throughout these experiences. Leadership day provided every learner with the opportunity to consider what makes a leader and considering how to enact positive change across the school. It also gave students the chance to show the 2021 foci- from building Appreciating togetherness and differences with new peers to Curiosity through challenge and exploring new possibilities. 

This Term marks another busy time for our Year Sixes. We continue to provide many opportunities for our learners to stretch their thinking through our rigorous classroom learning experiences and our innovation programs. Performing Arts lessons will become more frequent in Term Two, as we prepare for our Whole School production, and our interschool Sporting competition is already off and running, with our first round being a positive learning experience. With so much occurring across the level at any time, our You Can Do It program focuses on building independent, organised and adaptable learners. 

At the beginning of the Term, your family should have received information regarding transition to secondary school. If you or your child has any questions or queries about the transition process, please feel free to come and speak with me, any member of the year Six team or Kylie Sayer at the office.  We are here to help in any way we can. 

We thank you for your ongoing support of the Year Six team and the students. We look forward to celebrating your child’s growth and successes at our Student-Led Conferences at the end of this Term.
