Welcome Back

Students and staff made a very positive return to school for term 4 last week. We are focussing on students using their learning time effectively in class as the term begins. This can be supported from home by:

making sure students have the required exercise books, stationary and digital device for school
Helping your children to set routines that allow them to complete any set homework and study by completing deliberate practice of what they need to learn.

Term overview of this terms work in all subjects will be published this week on our website.

This term we are also looking forward to our next Parent Teacher Student Conferences on Tuesday 23rd May and our Athletics Carnival on Friday 26th May.

Please be aware that Thursday 11th May is a Student Free Day. Teachers will be working onsite on this day on how to best teach students at their point of need.

Anzac Day

Anzac Day is one of Australia’s most important national occasions. It marks the anniversary of the first major military action fought by Australian and New Zealand forces during the First World War. ANZAC stands for Australian and New Zealand Army Corps. The soldiers in those forces quickly became known as Anzacs, and the pride they soon took in that name endures to this day. On Anzac Day we commemorate the men and women who have served in our Armed Forces, those who have sacrificed themselves for our freedom and way of life

At Staughton College we honour Anzac Day in a number of ways. Our School Captains represented Staughton at the Melton RSL Anzac Day Services, where they laid wreaths at the memorial on behalf of the school community. At School we held an Anzac assembly last Friday that was entirely student led. All students are to be commended on the respectful way they approached the assembly and the commemoration of Anzac Day.

DAVID LORD

Principal

We, at Staughton College, would like to show our respect and acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land on which our school is situated, of elders past and present. We extend a warm welcome to everyone who visits our school.
