Dear Parents,
RE: Upcoming Webinar for Parents - How to Motivate Your Child
We’re excited to announce that parents of our school have exclusive access to Elevate Education’s Parent Webinar Series this year.
Elevate works with our students, delivering high impact workshops on study skills, motivation, wellbeing, and exam preparation. By tuning into their webinar series, you will learn how to better support your children at home through reinforcing the skills they learn at school.
Wednesday 27th July @ 6:30pm (AEST) How to Motivate Your Child
Here's what Elevate will be covering:
✅ What impact does praise and reassurance have on your child's motivation?
✅ What are the best type of goals to be setting with your child?
✅ How can you help your child create meaningful and lasting motivation?
The webinar is run live online from 6:30 - 7:30pm (AEST) where the presenter will share Elevate’s key research and skills, and will conduct a live Q&A so you can ask them questions directly.

Extended Absence Learning Plan
A friendly reminder that if for any reason including family holiday, a student is to be absent for 5 or more days it is a requirement of the Department of Education that a student completes an ‘extended absence learning plan’. This is to ensure that the absence doesn’t have a negative impact on the students learning, they complete any necessary schoolwork during that absence, and they have a plan to catch up when they come back.
This plan is developed in partnership between the student, parents & mentors/LCL. If you know of any times where your child will be absent for an extended period in the future, can you please be sure to contact your child’s mentor or Learning Community Leader (LCL) so that a meeting to develop this plan can be arranged.

Student Lost Property
As we head into the colder weather, we find more students are looking for lost uniform items. To assist staff with returning items that may have been left behind in class, we advise families to ensure the student name has been written on the tag so we may return them to the rightful owner. Any items that are found without a name will be kept for 2 weeks and if unclaimed, will then be donated.
