Principals Report

Hello to all students, parents, guardians and staff of McGuire College.

 

Week 6 into Term 3, how does the time go so fast?  All is tracking well within the College with many activities occurring since our last newsletter.  Athletic Sports, Tournament of the Minds, Junior and Senior Soccer are a few of the activities our students have participated in.

 

I have really made an effort to do my learning walks through classrooms, observing the learnings of our students and the way our teachers teach.  I am proud to say staff of McGuire College consistently abide by our Instructional Model. Our Instructional Model is set Teaching & Learning protocols that are research based and designed to enable deeper, engaged learning in all our classes.

 

SPA 4 cycle is being completed and will be out in the next week. 

A reminder we have Parent/Teacher interviews coming up in the last week of term, where you have an opportunity to have an update on how your child is progressing educationally. I look forward to seeing you there.

          Thursday, 19th September-  4pm - 6pm 

          Friday, 20th September 10am - 1.00pm

 

I have had our first session of 'Open Conversation' with parents about the Shepparton Education Plan and the changes occurring over the next few years.  Please know that I am happy to have honest and open conversations about any concerns.  These sessions will be occurring every Friday from 9.15 to 10.15 am over the course of the remainder of Term 3. (call the office to express your interest in attending).

Hope to see you there.

 

Keep well and thank you for working together to make our students' (your child's) experiences and educational development positive and progressive.

 

Kind regards
